San Sebastián
Tina McInerney
What a pretty place! We arrived mid- afternoon and booked into the pension. I was a bit annoyed with the accommodation as I thought it had a little sitting area in the bedroom but as it was you could hardly fit the cases in there. Anyway, we went off for the usual walk around the town and visit to the TI for a map. We had booked a food tour which went from 6-9 and was good fun. We visited 6 bars and had at least 12 pinxos which were delicious and 6 smallish drinks. It was good fun as the tour leader was a bit of fun and the other 4 people were very pleasant. In fact, Dad swapped addresses with a man who lived in Sydney and played golf.
Here we we all are at the end of the night. We all kissed each other goodbye!
Here are some sights of the town.
