Day 45 - France to Spain (Irun)

We awoke in our bijoux apartment to a beautiful sunrise. Up and off with a stop at the bakery and fed the sparrows with our croissant flakes.
Off to the bus stop to get the number 11 to Bayonne.
French buses are so cheap €1.30 for a 1 hour 20 min journey- amazing.
Bayonne looked like a thriving, dynamic metropolis but we had no time to explore as another bus to catch.
Second bus went through the outskirts of Biarritz and another coastal town called St Jean de Luz.
As we went through Hendaye - the town we were headed for we were looking for the stop ‘Ville’ that never appeared and suddenly we were at le grande plage- the other side of town. Simon decided we needed to head back into town so Mary missed out on a lunch by the sea!
This caused a certain amount of bickering- as you can imagine!! Also we then lost our way back into town and ended up having lunch opposite the very unromantic train station!!!
We calmed down - left France and walked into Spain 🇪🇸
So we are in a pension in Irun, have showered and are now laundering our clothes 🙌
We look forward to our first Spanish meal and beer before an early night.
Tomorrow we commence the Camino del Norte 👣👣👣
Simon hopes that Trevor behaves!!Read more
