      Biarritz

      9 April, Perancis ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

      Bei traumhaften Sonnenschein, ging es gestern nach Biarritz. Wir haben einen schönen Rundgang gemacht, erst ein Stück an der Küste entlang, dann durchs Städtchen zurück zur Promenade.
      Heutzutage kommen nicht mehr die Adeligen aus Europa in das mondäne Seebad, dafür aber viele Surfer.

      Da es den ganzen Tag sehr warm war, hatte ich mich schon auf den kalten Pool gefreut. Während wir noch auf den Bus warteten, fing es leider an zu regnen und als wir zurück am Zelt waren, war ich dann auch nass genug. Heute war das Wetter auch sehr unbeständig, darum kein Ausflug, sondern schlafen und lesen.

      4. Tag Stadt und Meer

      5 Oktober 2023, Perancis ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

      Heute haben wir uns Baguette und Croissants (die liegen hier wie Schmuck in einer Auslage in Vitrinen - die sind komisch die Franzosen) sowie frische Wurst gekauft und am Strandmäuerchen mit Blick aufs Meer verspeist. Nach dem leckeren Frühstück sind wir auf und haben immer wieder neue schöne Wege entdeckt. Am Petit Plage haben wir 3 Std. verbracht. Dort sind keine Wellen und man kann normal schwimmen - auch mal schön, ohne dass man umgehauen wird 😀 Zum guten Schluss am Cote des basques, dem Supersurferstrand den Bierdurst gestillt und einen tollen Sonnenuntergang erlebt. Da wir abends beim Cabo nur "Müll" (Chips und Schoko) in uns rein schieben und wir nur schmale Franzosen sehen, hat Wolli sich wenigstens sportlich betätigt - die Dinger stehen übrigens überall in der Nähe eines Strandes 😇Baca selengkapnya

      Ah, Biarritz

      21 Juli 2023, Perancis ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F

      Someone once told me that his favorite place in Europe is Biarritz so I was predisposed to like this seaside town with several beaches, surf, great food, diving, great food, narrow streets, great food, basque charm, great food and beautiful people on parade. Oh, the weather was pefectly delightful as well.

      While I was only there two brief nights I had the best chocolate sorbet I have tried (and I try them all. Pamplona was a close 2nd, fwiw), fresh delicious seafood, a delightful morning yoga session/swim, a beautiful sunny afternoon swim and stroll watching wavelets and happy people on the beach, and an evening swim workout.... All on separate beaches within a short stroll from the best AirBnb experience I've had.

      I reviewed an incredible seafood market, fell in love a thousand times (ok, maybe lust?), vicariously geared up for scuba, window shopped boutiques, appreciated art, savored a cold beverage or two, and watched some Brazilian fellow jump over a flag. Incredibly patient people tolerated my butchery of their language; among the most notable were A) my airbnb's dog who cared not one lick for how I mispronounced commands: he accepted scritches in 3 languages; and B) the very happily drunk young man at the bus stop at 7:30 AM who was delighted to muddle through a combination of French, Spanish, English to learn a little about where I am from, where I am going, and to heartily recommend that I visit Ustaritz. He is from there and I suspect he is biased... But certainly enthusiastic.

      It helped a great deal that good friends who I have known for nearly 20 years in Costa Rica live part-time in Biarritz and kept me company for the day. Many thanks to you, Jean Marc and Rhonda. I look forward to the next time that our paths cross.

      Biarritz

      4 Mei 2023, Perancis ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

      After breakfast at my hotel, I walked a few blocks to the Gare Montparnasse train station to catch my train bound for Bayonne. It was a 4+ hour train ride and I spent most of my time sewing Camino patches onto my backpack. Nothing like waiting until the last minute! 🙄 I do love train rides, however, so I made sure to take in the sights of the beautiful countryside and the vast yellow fields of rapeseed.

      After arriving in Bayonne, I had to wait quite awhile for a taxi to take me to Biarritz, a charming seaside town. When my taxi did show up, my driver was a woman and she apologized for not speaking English. I apologized for not speaking French and then we both rode in silence to my hotel.

      My room at the Hôtel Littéraire Jules Verne was lovely and within walking distance to the restaurants, shops and the beach. I got restaurant recommendations from the hotel staff and opted for one with local fare given I was now in Basque Country.

      The roasted peppers I ordered for my starter were cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of salt flakes that glistened in the light. Unfortunately, I was so famished that I ate most of them before I thought to take a picture. 🤣 For my main course I enjoyed trout and paired it with a Pinot noir. My girls will tell you that there’s nothing better than French bread in France and the bread on my table was no exception. I also love how they served it in a small bag.

      During my dinner I had the perfect view of the almost full moon coming up in the distance. What a beautiful sight! Afterwards I strolled through the streets of this inviting town and then ventured down to the waterfront to take in the beautiful sunset.

      Back at my hotel I discovered a Sleep Bar on a table near my room with three containers filled with herbs. The sign next to them explained that you were to fill a small bag with the herb of your choice and place it under your pillow. Of course, I did just that, but to no avail, I had a terrible nights sleep. 😩Maybe a third glass of wine would have been more sleep-inducing. 🥴

      The buffet breakfast in the morning was wonderful with the BEST creamy scrambled eggs, assorted breads and jam, yogurts, cheeses, and make-your-own waffles. A perfect start to another wonderful day! ☺️

      Cafe au lait aka redemption

      25 Maret, Perancis ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C

      Mission of the day, which I set myself and therefore accepted, was to not let being a little bitch get in the way. A regret I bring home from anywhere with a language barrier I've travelled is prioritising 'not looking silly' over an experience I want, and as much as the French have a reputation for helping you along in your self loathing, damn it, I wanted a cafe breakfast.

      Well. Turns out either I'm amazing or the folk in Biarritz are angels or maybe everything just came together today. I stormed (walked) into Les Halles, and seized the day (ordered a coffee) and took up space (sat quietly on a stool) and took my bloody time (ordered a pastry when my coffee was gone) and demanded (muddled through) it all in French and DID IT (did it).

      Baskenland - ein flüchtiger Blick

      22 April, Perancis ⋅ 🌬 12 °C

      Auf der Weiterfahrt zum Atlantik begegnen uns in der grünen Berglandschaft die weiß roten Häuser, die typisch sind für das französische Baskenland. Jedes Dorf scheint sich herausgeputzt zu haben und die Postkartenmotive rauschen nur so an uns vorbei.
      Die baskische Sprache konnten wir vorab bei einem kleinen Dorffest hören, gesungen von drei Frauen und dem Männerchor Paz Aban. In Spanien und Frankreich wird sie noch von etwa 900 000 Menschen gesprochen und gepflegt - sprachwissenschaftlich scheint Basque mit keiner anderen Sprache verwandt zu sein.
      Passend zu dem roten Holz der Häuser wird in der Region scharfer Paprika angebaut und an den leuchtend weißen Häuserwänden getrocknet. Paprika begegnet uns jedoch hier im Frühling nicht, dafür aber unzählige Jakobspilger, die in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port unterwegs sind und sich mit Regenkleidung ausstatten. Das sind die Vorzeichen für das Wetter der nächsten Tage.
      In Saint-Jean de Luz sehen wir den Atlantik aber nochmal blau in der Sonne leuchten. Die Küste ist wild, die Sandstrände sind lang und weich an den Füßen. Die einen laufen mit Wollmütze und Windjacke über den Strand, während andere entspannt in den kalten Wellen sitzen.
      Der nächste Morgen begrüßt uns wie erwartet mit Regen. Also vertreiben wir uns die Zeit im Ozeaneum in Biarritz und freuen uns darauf, die nächsten Tage ein Dach über den Kopf zu haben.

      Bizzy

      24 Maret, Perancis ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

      So Biarritz is lovely, big surf scene here and it's got pockets of fanciness without being in your face about it. Always a sign of a town doing well when there are tonnes of e-cargo bikes and exotic mid-sized dogs. It shows they've got time to think about the nice-to-haves and space to physically put them. Also there's lots of public toilets?! That are free? Without a woman in it demanding coins!? If covid put a stop to that then it might have all been worth it to be honest.

      Check in wasn't until 3pm so I spent a few hours walking around the waterfront, grateful for the incredible stink resistant qualities of merino after four flights and about 40 hours in transit. This included a locally sourced Red Bull which was not big or clever of me but look it needed to be done, see previous sentence. Also it will make Josie laugh.

      Coming back to the hotel I was thrilled to receive a room upgrade and noted a strong orange velvet couch motif, thoughtful of them to make me feel at home. Unsure if I was more excited about my gigantic sandwich or a shower at this junction, I enjoyed them simultaneously.

      Laundry is going to be a daily grind so I knocked that out then, 4pm local time, crawled in for what I intended to be a small nap but ended up taking me to 9.30pm. I did a late night 5km walk, being Sunday and maybe just the way this place is, it was very quiet and I felt safe mum I promise.

      In a feat of self discipline I managed to fall straight back to sleep at midnight so I reckon I'm on the body clock bandwagon now, let's bounce.

      Dag 7

      19 April 2023, Perancis ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

      Een lange wandeling gemaakt vandaag langst we kust in Biarritz. Heel mooie stad met verschillende uitkijkpunten over de zee en de stad. Ook vandaag waren er weer heel veel surfers.
      Na de wandeling was er nog tijd om een uurtje op het strand te gaan liggen.
      Als avond eten heb ik croque monsieur gemaakt, zoals we thuis ook vaak doen op woensdag.😋

      The Last Supper!

      5 Oktober 2022, Perancis ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

      We met in the hotel bar for a pre-dinner drink before we headed across the road for our farewell dinner at restaurant L’Equinoxe. I started with an espresso martini, Ian with a mojito, and then the bar maid gave us all a shot which comprised vodka, rhubarb liqueur and lime juice. It was bloody delicious and very easy to drink. Opa!

      We then headed to the restaurant where we had a delicious meal of local jamon, pan-fried sea bass with grilled onions and peppers, and the chef also sent out a bowl of mussels done in garlic, parsley and a touch of cream. The mussels were amazing and, although the bowl was for the whole table, I ate about 70% of them. The servings were so generous and, as most of us couldn’t finish our plates, the waitress would give us a stern look of disappointment (in fun) with our effort. Ian copped it for not finishing his jamon, but made up for it by finishing his main and dessert which was a crème brûlée. We enjoyed a lovely local red with the meal and toasted both Mary and Bronwyn.

      After dinner, we headed back to the hotel for a nightcap. I got Liza behind the bar to make another round of the shots she had made us earlier. Then it was time to hit the hay as we all had big travel days the next day (except for Bronwyn who wasn’t leaving until the following day).

      Although our group was small, and got even smaller during the tour, we had a really good time with lots of laughs along the way. Mary was wonderful, so laid back and fun and with lots of interesting stories, she really set the mood for the trip, and Jerome was an absolute gem who added so much to the entire trip. He was friendly, kind and caring and so generous with his time and knowledge. The two of them were a great team.

      15 Juni 2023, Perancis ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

      So gaaaaanz langsam müssen wir uns auf den Heimweg machen und das wunderschöne Spanien verlassen 😞

      Frankreich hat uns wieder..... kurz nach der Grenze von Spanien, nisten wir uns auf dem wunderschönen Campingplatz "La Ferme d'Erromardie" Paradis in Sant-Jean-de-Luz ein ! Direkt
      am Meer .... traumhaft !🥰

      Wir radeln auf dem herrlichen Radweg nach Biarritz !
      Wenn man sich in eine Stadt verlieben könnte, würde ich mir Biarritz aussuchen 🤩🤩

      Was für ein Flair.... was für ein Charisma....eine echte Schönheit die sich perfekt in Szene setzt ! Unglaubliche Paläste.... Gebäude.... Kirchen.... Parks 😊 wir sind begeistert !
      Leben pur an jeder Ecke und trotzdem strahlt sie Gemütlichkeit aus ! Ein Tag reicht eigentlich nicht um alles zu erkunden, aber der erste Eindruck sagt uns, dass wir mit Sicherheit nicht das letzte Mal in dieser wunderschönen Ecke sind 🥰

      Und der Sundowner lässt keine Zweifel zu ! 😜🌅
