Day 9 #KSUSummerSpain2025: Second day of Spanish classes at the university this morning, then toured Pamplona’s main Cathedral in the afternoon. We climbed the 135 steps to the tower for amazing views & to see the largest functioning church bell in Spain, weighing in at 11 tons!

Day 8 #KSUSummerSpain2025: First Day of School! We spent the morning on campus getting to know our profs, classrooms, & cafeteria. Then Luis took us on a tour of Pamplona; a few of us stayed in the centro for pintxos, café, the bakery, and shopping.
