Basque Country.

Made it to the south of France in the beautiful Basque country, at the small surf town of Biarritz! Parking was a nightmare and the ticket sure didn't help Mr Parking Warden, but the view is so worth it. Cliffs jutting into the wild ocean all along the coast as far as the eye can see.

An amazing natural surfing arena with a high bank and esplanade perfect for watching the daring surfers tame today's wild waves. Can't wait to return and try it myself! Feels good to be back in a seaside surf town and loving the southern twang to the French accents. Those smiling faces and the lack of smoking isn't half bad either.

On a side note, I can't remember the last time I saw real sand...
