San Sebastian

San Sebastian could add up to a thousand posts just to show half the fun, but I will keep it at a minimum. Upon arrival we had decided we would return again someday. It was so exciting going from the city and subways of Paris to a beach and boardwalk! We walked the beaches along the Cantabrian Sea, bar hopped along the small streets of Tapas bars which proved to be more than we ever imagined. A highlight was watching the sunset beyond the Isla de Santa Clare that held a solo light house. {observe my mix of Spanish/English}. A little FYI: San Sebastian is known for these `world famous´ tapas (pintxos) bars that fill many small streets and `claims the most bars per square meter in the world.´ The beaches were unlike any beach we had ever seen and we spent some time watching the surfers, kite surfers and hang-glider. We had a couple warm days, and a couple wet ones. It did not stop our hiking the two small islands, Monte Urgall and Monte Igueldo with some of the most specacular views no camera can really capture.
