If you're interested in starting the treasure hunt from the very beginning, check out the prologue!
Upon arrival at the Pamplona Airport, you head towards baggage claim. Standing at baggage claim, you see a man in a suit and sunglasses. One hand is behind his back; in the other, he holds a sign that reads "[insert username here]". Walking up to him, you say:
"Hi. My name is [insert username here]. Do you have something for me?"
Without hesitation, he stretches the arm from behind his back out towards you. In it he holds a small envelope. You take the envelope and eagerly tear it open, pulling another small card out from inside. The card reads:
Dear [insert username here],
Congratulations on your arrival in Pamplona! I'd suggest you stay and enjoy the city (it is a beautiful city), but there's no time for that - you're running a race! Grab your bag, rent a car, and hit the road! This time, you're driving to your next location, which is (more or less) detailed on the back of this letter.
Yours truly,
Bailey M

You flip over the letter and read:
Lisbon, Portugal: 7.3498737047383369
Knockainey, Ireland: 7.2723983925700463
Boudekak, Algeria: 6.8394764382288426
As you circle in on the answer, make careful note of your location. At some point down the line, you'll be left with two. Don't look too closely here, as your first instinct will most likely be correct. Once you've centered in on the solution, the final destination (much like the above numbers) should feel natural.
As you finish reading, you notice your suitcase drop onto the conveyor belt. Time to grab that bag and hit the road!
Where is your next destination?
