San Sebastián and Loyola.

Today we explored the truly beautiful city of San Sebastián and decided that we must return in the near future. This is a fantastic place and if it's not on your bucket list then add it quickly. It is a classy city with a vibrant cafe culture and an abundance of Michelin starred restaurants. I could live on the tapas that are plentiful. The beaches and the promenades are the best and a stroll along the Ramblas is an experience.
During the afternoon we got a bus to Loyola where we visited the Basilica and obtained our passbooks for the walk. The whole atmosphere in Loyola was quiet and serene and there was a feeling that you were somewhere special. Since Loyola is a one hour trip from San Sebastián then we will have an early start tomorrow.
From all the formation we got today the first three days will be tough climbing and there will be few other walkers on the trail. Well this is only a short blog and the walking will start tomorrow.
