This is where i should point out the main problems with having a car…. imagine driving 10 hours, trying to navigate a foreign country while you are driving, having only foreign language sings to point you in the right direction. You finally see your destination on the freeway so you get off, unfortunately its a BIG city and you have NO idea where you are or where you are going. Once you figure it out (usually a stop at the tourist info) then you have to find a place to park your car (which either costs you $$$ of makes you stress about having it broken into) so anyway i pulled into San Sebastian at about 10pm. I walked around the old town looking for a place to stay, i talked to a girl who was handing out flyers and she managed to hook me up with accomodation and she said i could park my car around the other side of the hill (whcih was basically a pretty dangerous place to leave it) anyway i ended up going out for drinks with her and her friends after we finished work and her friends managed to convince me to come to the pub crawl the next night. I rode around SS for most of the day and its a beautiful place, with a decent beach (not like the mediterranian beaches, more like melbournes bay beaches). San Sebastian has the BEST tappas bars ever in the world (although i havent been to granada) so if you want awesome spanish food go here. Spain has a LOT of very old gothic churches and they are predominantly the center of all the towns. After the pub crawl (which was very very crazy) i left the next day for madrid, i was trying to get down to Jeremey that i had met in africa, he said he wanted to cruise with me, and by this stage i was pretty much hanging for some company that was more than just a day friend.
