Feeling Froggy - Carpe Diem

Final day of R-N-R in Biarritz. We woke up early to a dense sea fog, a common thing around here due to the Pyrenees mountains meeting the sea. After breakfast we met Alan, our local guide for a private tour of his hometown, learning about the history, culture, and geology of the region plus a sprinkle of spirituality, philosophy and folklore.

The rest of the day was spent enjoying the sun, scenery and spa amenities at the hotel - pool, sauna, hammam, and beach while Trina went on her own adventure exploring the town and coming back with snacks and wine to have a happy hour picnic on our balcony. We concluded the day with a sunset stroll along the shore to find Trina some seafood.

We depart for St Jean PDP tomorrow to prepare for "the real" journey ahead. We are getting weather reports of rain all the way to Pamplona for our first days on the Camino. Not ideal, but it is what it is. So, we decided to "Basque" in the sunshine today.
