Breakfast in Biarritz

Three weeks in Spain came to an end with our stay in beautiful San Sebastian - that most gentrified of coastal towns.  We walked in the fine sand of the large crescent-shaped Playa de Concha and dipped our toes in the Atlantico.  We walked the old town and took the opportunity to have a final paella.

Sad to be leaving Spain it seemed Spain was sad we were leaving too, as later that night a soft warm rain fell.  It has been a joy travelling this rich and spectacular country and to learn a little of its history, to observe and engage in some Spanish customs, and to improve our vocabulary.  Moi beno.

Next morning, an early sunny departure as our mission that day was to meet S in the south of France where she had been working on an organic farm.  We crossed the border and couldn't resist the opportunity to leave the autoroute and have breakfast in Biarritz. Delicious crepes and coffee.....and then we turned right for Cezares sur Garonne.
