Basque Country
Summer vacation
For this year’s summer vacation I went to the Basque Country on the border of Spain and France: 4 nights in San Sebastian followed by 10 days in Biarritz. Many years ago I went on a tour of the Spanish northern coast with a friend and was struck by the landscapes and the amazing food, and have always meant to go back. Now it finally happened.
This was more of a family trip, but I still managed a few interesting days out for photography. Biarritz is a great vacation spot but unfortunately there is nothing of note from there to Bordeaux, 200+ km’s away. The northern part of Spain and the Pyrenees are more interesting and need further exploration.
