Avenida de Francia, 21 San Sebastián - Donostia, Basque, Spain and Canary Islands, 20012, 943-291900
As previously mentioned in our Biarritz blog entry, we safely arrived in San Sebastian on Thursday. After 4 days and three nights, I think we can safely say that San Sebastian is an awesome tourist destination for anyone. The tapas (or pinxtos in Basque) were a great way to fill the belly, the people were nice, and we had some beautiful weather on a couple days which made for a nice time at la playa. Although it was difficult dealing with the clothing optional atmosphere. More pictures and ab...
Basque, Spain and Canary Islands broncosTom and Sue took the day to zip to Bilbao (1:45 south of Biarritz) to see the famous Guggenhiem Museum. Wow, what a building!! The exhibits pale in comparison, but still we enjoyed a solid 4 hours at the museum. Afterwards, we drove back to San Sebastian where Sue introduced me to Alona Berri, the ...
Biarritz, Aquitaine, France kramertownI don't really need to tell you what we did do I? Take one part playground, one part beach, and one part sunset and you have a Kramer day in Biarritz.
Judy spent the day with Pierre, a former wrestler and French Olympic wresting coach (he went with the team to Atlanta) who she had met on the train ride a few days ...
Biarritz, Aquitaine, France kramertown... the kids slept. Tom did a little surfing and another nice sunset was enjoyed during dinner.
Another lovely beach day was followed by an evening tour by Tom and Sue of nearby Bayonne, the financial center of Bayonne/Anglet/Biarritz. What a cute town!! It has a beautiful 14th century ...
Biarritz, Aquitaine, France kramertown... and I'd probably end up having a horrible night's sleep on the bus, something which definitely would NOT help me feel any better. So ...
The decision was made .. push on to Zaragoza as originally planned. I had a terrible sleep, and was feeling iller and iller ... but as ****** as I felt, I was happy. This trip was all about finding my lost mojo and without even realizing exactly how it happened, my mojo was recaptured in San Sebastian :)
... to the campsite's bar and had a glass of the local wine and some bad tapas which were just fried bar food. However, it is a great campsite and it's pretty nice they have a restaurant/bar anyway. We could have been quite hungry all night.
We woke up with not a whole lot of sleep. There were a group of french early-twentiers who were talking until about two. Kevin woke himself, me, and at least one other tent up with superhuman snoring. A couple of people were up ...
... three seventy one cent bottles of wine (really classy stuff) and headed to town square to join in the party. Mind you its ten am and the entire city plus thousands of visitors arre joined in the city sqaure and well on there way to being absolutely belligerent. neither of us had nor could afford the traditional costumes but after a little time we came across to bandans and a white childs medium shirt for me ( cody already had a white tee). we were now official and ...
Pamplona, Spain scottshep... and actually got one! We AGAIN decided not to risk not getting to run that morning so we stay up again that night. We have been wearing these same sangria (wine) stained white clothes for 2 days with only a few hours of sleep but we stay up again. We decide to say screw it and booze it up that evening. There are bands in all the city squares, bars packed full, and people drinking on all the streets. It is an amazing site. We finally try to get some sleep about 3:00 and ...
