San Sebastian

Actually got homesick for the first time this morning. It was 8 and the town wasn´t up yet for some reason. Even the produce markets hadn´t got put up yet. Weird
This city is just what I had imagined and more. There is a river that cuts the city in half, new and old. I´m staying in the old quarter, where all the bars are located, naturally feel at home. But it´s more then that; with Barcelona and Madrid, I really felt as though I was a weird duck, but not here. There is something about this city that draws you in. I was walking today down the river towards the sea. There is a ledge that you can lay on that over looks the ocean and the river. Fell asleep there for probably an hour.
Staying roughly 5 minute walk from the beach, so went and changed, then fell asleep on the beach for like an hour. The overnight train right was kinda rough. Constant stops and what not.
Went and had my first actual tapas lunch today. For 4.4 euro I got 3 nice ¨dishes¨and a glass of wine.
So far if I could move to somewhere ive been, it would be here. The pictures won´t do it justice. Wish some of you all could make it with me.
