I loved France's Basque Country

at St Jean de Luz
Cheese!!

le Pays Basque is an unique part of France and Spain along the Southern Atlantic coastline joining the 2 countries. While Spain's Basque country is quite political, and desirous of independance, the French side of the border focusses on on its great cultural heritage. We saw great traditional costumes and dancing in a parade and festival, ate delicious chocolate (a regional speciality) and enjoyed some serious beach time. More photos to follow once Allison and I exchange photos.
