Photos - France - Urrugne
This
is a very nice site at the foot of the Pyrenees just outside Biarritz
on the border of France and Spain. The owner is a proud Basque and
walks around with his beret on all the time. The countryside here is
really nice and a total contrast to the Spainish side a few kilometers
away.
James,
Hazel and I went swimming in the almost open air pool on one of the
sunny days, however the weather here seems to be affected by the Pyrenees
and the Bay of Biscay as it can get windy and rainy. So we are now
off to rush through Spain.

The Spanish flag is conspicuous by its absence...

and the Espania border signs have had the Basque treatment!

All the houses in the area are in a Basque style...

and very big

Nice site but a little windy
