Lunch, mine was a crab egg and potatoe with a cana de cerveza
While trying to relax in Spain I have come to a couple realizations as it were...

1. I needed a vacation very badly!!

2. Travel is very important to discovery and the human spirit and...

3. Though I came to "get away from myself", discovery and change inevitably set in and you find yourself more.

San Sebastian has been great, we have enjoyed the flavorful food and pintxos (tapas) for dinner, the walks through the old town and centro, the surfing, the overall beauty even through some of the not so great weather (rain, wind and clouds) is unmatched.

It dawned on me just how much fun and beauty really surrounds us here ( and yes I have been missing everyone) but I have come to really appreciate the language and this city.

I wanted to post more photos of beautiful San Sebastian.
