Change in scenery

Didn't plan on it but ended up in France. Today and the next 3 are free days--we had no plans no reservations we just go and see where the road takes us. This can be slightly stressful but always adventurous. So--we found ourselves on the coast of France. Boy the roads are tiny and people drive like they are in the Daytona 500. We wanted a room with a view of the ocean that was inexpensive. Hard to find u say? You'd be right but as usual on these spontaneous situations there happened to be one room left on the little town of Guethary over a restaurant/bar in the curve of the road and right next to the trains. It was a corner room with 2 windows--1overlooking the town/trains and the other the ocean. No AC, phones, or tv and u had to share bathroom/shower with 3 other rooms. It reminded me of old Europe. I fell in luv with it Paul did not. We stayed! And found out later that this is a surfing hotspot Will take pics. Waves are 10-15 feet and pound in on rock wall--no beach!! Crazy surfers!!!
