I actually feel a bit rested after napping on the bus.
My backpack exploded all over Kepa and Ashlyn's (Kepash) apartment then Ashles and I enjoyed a late lunch and headed to the beach.
At playa Zurriola there were some mellow waves and small number of people surfing. It looks like a good spot for beginners. It was not a nude beach at all, but there are some women who went topless and one guy bottomless.
Later, Ash and I met with Kepa and two of their friends for drinks and pinxos(tapas).
We ate some tortilla de bacalao(cod) and txipirones en su tinta (squid in their ink)-pictured.
Words learned today:
A Casco porro-a funny way to say "a lot". For ex. Esta lloviendo a casco porro
lio o follon- a mess the way we use the word clusterf*. For ex. Que foyon.
In basque country people speak another language called Euskera. Everyone speaks Spanish and a large number of people here also speak euskera. Simple words in Euskera are thrown into everyday language like "hi, bye, thanks....".
It will be interesting to try learning those words as I go.
Mañana I get to explore some more and find last minute things before leaving on our bike trip on the 5th.
