Is the europen version of our Labor Day. Tons of people out on yhe streets of San Sebastián. Not much shopping but plenty of time for sight seeing. I should be asleep at 2:23am. Just trying to unwind. Guggenheim Museum is really interesting.

Very cool! Did you see a lot of these flags? I spent a couple weeks in San Sebastian in 1995. Very pretty, walkable town, but there were still occasional bombings and killings of/by the ETA. From there I went to Pamplona to run with the bulls, then on to Lourdes and Andorra. Didn't make it to Bilbao, though. Have fun! Enjoy the jai alai.

Well I've never been to Spain, but I saw a lot of those in Boise and Jordan Valley, Idaho.

My Ortiz ancestors (who came to the New World earliest) were from Basque territory but apparently not Basque.

I always see those flags a lot in the crowds in the mountain stages of the Tour de France. I always wondered what they were, and I didn't figure they were color-blind British expats.

There´s a new Freedom Flag you see here. Our tour guide talked about it Wednesday. They are prominent but not too popular if I understood her correctly. I tried to Google it, but could not find it.

The Basque country is beautiful. Mountains, sea, beautiful cathedral. Even people swimming in the freezing cold water like it was 90 degrees instead of the 46 degrees.

To Madrid tomorrow and home on Sunday.

Same here. Never been to Spain. But I've been to Oklahoma.
