Anyway, San Sebastian is really pretty, and reminds me a bit of Nice in France. The weather is a bit cooler than we had, somewhat carelessly, hoped for, but we´re going to try and swim at the beach tomorrow, regardless of the weather. The city is a bit smaller, only 100,000 or so, and it´s situated right on the coast, around two bays, and surrounded by a few mountains. It´s pretty cheap here at the moment, probably because it´s the middle of Autumn and it´s a coastal town, but we´re staying in what is called a Pension, which is essentially a budget hotel, but is costing us the same as what a hostel would. After sleeping in dorms for near on 4 months, staying here is pretty good, and all the small things like proper towels and so on is pretty luxurious to us.
We looked around town today, although there isn´t a great deal of sites so to speak, just a few cool viewpoints from up in the mountains, overlooking the city. We have two more nights here, and then head off to Madrid on Monday morning.
