Le Jorlis Anglet

Tom 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 ...

I 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.<br><br>            <br>

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 ...

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 ...

San Sebastian is a wicked old town, literally full of tapas restaurants, bars and little shops. Our hostel was right in the middle of it all, it was ridiculously loud at night, but nothing wine and ear plugs can't handle.

... sheep cheese, jamon and local red. Then, shrieking, we slipped into the snow melt river. We weren't all that far from where the snow was actually melting and by the time your head was wet your legs were numb. Some days make you feel so alive your face hurts! We carried on to the Picos but all the walking tracks were road-wide and gravel-faced - nothing like walking in the mountains really - our diversion had been a lucky one. The scenery was wonderful though, much of the ...

Anglet/Biarritz is basically one of the two most well-known surf destinations in France. I still can't believe how lucky I am to be in the Basque region of France. It's really beautiful, with the ocean community, nice people, and styling architecture. The mountains, ocean, and all of the colors are also amazing. I arrived in Biarritz at 8 in the evening, and walked outside not knowing at all what I was doing that night. I had my ...
