san sebastiannnnnn

so we spent our last day in paris in designer shops, wishing we were rich... my favorites were valentino (everything was superb, so beautiful and precise, i wanted all of the shoes and the bags and the dresses... basically everything... ) and dior (the gowns were so exquisite) and dolce and gabbana (everything. i've always loved dolce).. and we got ladurée again... we also did laundry and sent a package from the post office, so that was cool... the next day we were supposed to go to switzerland and had train reservations and everything... but we checked the weather and switzerland was going to be cold. and then we looked for hostels. switzerland is severely lacking in hostels. switzerland hostels are expensive. so we decided to get up super early and try to get train tickets to san sebastian... yay spain! so we got to the train station and the girl got us seats on a train that was supposed to arrive in hendaye (about 20 minutes away from san sebastian) at 4:35 in the afternoon... enough time to get a hostel... our train got held over in bordeaux for 4 ish hours and then got delayed and there were screaming school children and it was insane. we got to san sebastian at 10:20 at night. terrifying. noone spoke english and noone knew where a hostel was. we wandered around. scared. we found some english speaking people and they pointed us in the direction of a hostel... we went into the first one we saw and booked a night, we then got on the internet and booked the next night for the hostel that we are at now and then booked our rooms in madrid... exhausted, we went to sleep... today we woke up and went to the train station to book our seats on the train to madrid... after that we went to the beach!! i love the beach. love love love it. we checked out of one hostel and walked to our other one... which had... australians! surfing australians! australians in their wetsuits! australians without shirts on... aah, australians. so we like this hostel... we walked into town and got some tapas and sangria for lunch and gelato for dessert (i had ferrero rocher and coconut)... mmm tasty... and then we went and tanned in the local style on the beach... after that we hiked up to the big jesus that is on the hill... cool. then we grabbed some dinner and we're going to go see the town with our australian roommate tonight, sweet!
