Day 138: Hop over to the French side of the border
August 30th, 2011
Sure, why not! It’s only a one-and-a-half-hour drive from Pamplona to some southern French villages so why not go see what it’s like on the other side of the border? We went to St. Jean-de-Luz and to Biarritz. I much preferred the down-to-earth people in St. Jean-de-Luz than the tourists in Biarritz.
Biggest difference? There is no noise on the streets and all the shops close from about 13:00 to 18:00. It is dead. People just walk around on the beach and lie in the sun. Too quiet for me.
Wow! It’s a beautiful area…Glad to see you made it safely to Spain/France!
