Blustery time in Biarritz.
... the beach itself had many surfers, swimmers and sunbathers. The setting is idyllic with the large waves slapping the shores of the Bay of Biscay.

Guaranteed cabin size, too :) I will ...
Day 28 - We love Biarritz!
... into the bus stop in Biarritz, I wasn't completely sure how far we needed to go in order to get to our hotel, and I thought there would be a taxi stand right next to it. There was a taxi stand of sorts, but it was the police station with loads of police cars outside! Maybe not. After some careful map reading, comparing the map in the bus shelter and its handy "you are here" marker with the map on my phone, I figured it was a pretty short walk away so in ...
