The Capital
December 10th, 2023 , 9:20
After a small breakfast we headed out for the last day with the car and went to San Sebastian. Twisty drive (mind you, every drive is twisty – there will be one of those twists for 1.5km signs and 1.5kms later there’s another one). Drove through the city to the port, then back down along the front and found a perfect parking space. We’ve been lucky with the driving.
We walked around San Sesbatian and had a coffee. Weren’t particularly hungry so just looked at the town. There was something going on – large marques set up by the Torre del Conde where they were setting up for something – stage at one end with long tables set up. Then at the Church Iglesia de La Asunción there were crowds and singing, also chairs set up under awnings outside. It also looked like most of the tourist things were closed. But it was a nice walk around the town.
We drove back the long way to the hotel getting back late afternoon. At a bit before sunset we headed back out, walked along the road by the golf course and saw a few birds. Then along the shore watching the birds and sunset. We were waiting for the stars and Geminids, but there was still a bit too much light. We did watch as the stars came out and could see bits of the milky way, also saw a satellite or three and a couple of meteors. So have plans to go out after dinner, but probably in a couple of nights. Best nights to see the Geminids is the 13 or 14 December, so!
