The date is November 18th - 19th, 2011 - The days of our last excursion with ISA to San Sebastian and Biarritz. To San Sebastian, Spain the first day and then to Biarritz, France the next. The picture above is the beautiful bay in San Sebastian. We took a little tram car, called a funicular, up to the top. Beaches are so photogenic, plus it was an absolutely gorgeous day outside. I don't have much history to tell you about this place... Although I do know that they used to smuggle people in and out of Spain through this port during the Spanish Civil War, where they would be taken to Biarritz or St. Jean de Luz for a safe place to stay or continue they're journey through Spain to get intelligence information.
Here's a little tour of San Sebastian:
Now, off to Biarritz for a day!
Another gorgeous beach town just two and a half hours away from Bilbao. Everything was different there - the architecture, the people, the feel, etc. France definitely felt like a different place; however, I could just be making that up in my head. If I had decided to speak French instead of Spanish and I knew about this place I would've picked it for my studies. Absolutely beautiful and it smelled like crepes.
If life was a postcard this place would be it!
Next week: Random scenes from Bilbao! Be ready to search for that teddy bear because he's ready to be found!
