Zaragoza Plaza Hotel San Sebastian San Sebastián - Donostia

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>

... Dispite the language barriers they had a lovely time exploring the basque country side. What did we do? Why go to the beach, of course!!<br><br>                      <br>

... the kids slept. Tom did a little surfing and another nice sunset was enjoyed during dinner.<br><br>                    <br>

... area was, much much better. We still sucked, really not as easy as we thought it would be, we tried for a good 3 hours, then bailed cause our arms we barely paddling at the end. <br><br>PICTURES:<br>http://picasaweb.g oogle.com/Jonny.D.Lawrence/20091003SanS ebastian?authkey=Gv1sRgCOWIm__nrLe3Xw&a mp;feat=directlink

... resulting from a battle between combined English/Portuguese forces and the French, burned almost all of San Sebastian to the ground, except for this street. After, the name of the street was changed to August 31 street, the day this all happened. Even without that, I was tempted to stay - for some reason, I've become a bit of a beach bum on this trip, and there's no better place to bum around than San Sebastian. <br><br>I spoke to David ...

... we were en route and didn't allow our selves to get distracted - we'll hopefully take some time to go visit france at some point when we know more than one or two words of French.  There were lots of forests that were leaning - it looked like a hurricane went through, but they were mainly logging fields.  We arrived around 6 at our campsite in San Sebastian (Camping Igueldo) after the Garmin took us through a few miles of a two-way car-wide road.  It was edge-of-your ...

... us even asking. They must have assumed we were lost, as I kept looking for street signs and checking the guidebook. Already we liked the Spanish and by the looks of this lively town it was going to be a great 3 days. Unloading our gear yet again, we were delighted by our 'hostel' accommodations. New towels every morning, clean-shared bathrooms, a nice comfortable room, and the sound of silence welcomed us to Hospedaje Ibai. The first of our four ...

... accessable money cody and i had some serious deicsion making to do. we got a feel for the town and decided we would get our money back and sleep in a park and sacrafice our comfort rather than hunger. easier said than done. Estell did not want to give us our money back and between her stubborness, our desperate need for money, and a terrible language barrier we had one hell of a drop down fight. After an hour or so of fighting and numerous police threats from both ...

... saw that painting. It didn't stop there though. I also saw the two with the lady, one with clothes and one without. I don't remember the name of those, but I remember that it's by Velasquez (I don't know if I spelled that right). Actually, I think I could just imagine myself at the museum back home thinking to myself that I would be going to Spain next year and wondering if I would see it..haha...dreams coming true. I have to remind myself, or tell myself, everyone once in ...
