And so after a night of rain and high wind, perched atop the mountain, we left Bilbao, heading for Donostia-San Sebastian and our final visit in Spain, this year. But first we stopped at the big Eroski in Bilbao, a super/hiper/mercado I now know almost as well as the Safeway in Menlo Park. We stocked up on jamon, sangria, and gazpacho. Also Ribera, Crianza, and Rioja. In an hour we got to Donostia and our usual camper-stop at the University, a 15 minute walk to the beautiful harbor. I spent most of the day and the next blogging at a bar just a few hundred steps from the camper-stop, while Vicki read and worked on the camper. That night we did the usual tapas/pintxos crawl, getting to know the old town almost too well. It is a lovely place we still enjoy, even on the 4th visit.

Camping at the university is always interesting; could this
be the chemistry building? |
 |
| Thus, at the camper-stop, mostly people passing-through this time of year |
 |
| Teeny-bopper street: beer only, loud music, no tapas, no tourists, no parents |
 |
| At Rick's Tapas Bar Americaine; people actually order this stuff... |

Cafe Bar Ostadar; all neighborhood bars should be this popular, friendly,
generous; and have wifi |
