Madrid- San Sebastian, Spain
This morning was hard to do because both of us woke up really tired and it was probably a good thing that we were not doing much. Rj didn't feel good for most of the day and for some reason I didn't either. We took the train from Madrid to San Sebastian, which was from 10:00 to 4:00 pm and then from there we walked to the next local train station and took the train from San Sebastian to Hendaye, France. We got to Hendaye at about 6:00 and made our reservation to Paris, which we were hoping were not full. The lady at the desk told us that the sleeping cars were full, but not the reclining chairs (before the reclining chairs, were normal and not very comfortable). Then when she told us the price, we could not believe it, she said 3 euro for both of us and we were like what!! That was awesome and we were so excited, it was the cheapest night for us so far. In the mean time, we had about 3 or so hours until our train left so we decided to walk to the water. We wanted to go to where the beach was and hang out, but it was a lot farther than we expected so we went to a bench that was near a playground and hung out. We both read our books and relaxed and watched the people go by. There was a walking path and a bike path that looked like it went around the whole area and to where the beach probably was. Then we made ourselves some dinner (salami sandwiches with cheese) and then we were on our way to catch our train. It left at 10:00 pm and got into Paris at 7:00am. When we got on the train we realized that these chairs were actually recliner ones and very nice, so we were excited and happy to hopefully sleep good.

Cool pics. Looks like you were in Paris only long enough to see the Eifel Tower. IMHO you didn't miss to much. Ireland looks very green be careful of Loch Ness. Hughie says it is only the English (American tourists) that see the Loch Ness Monster, lol. I told him probably after several pints. Glad you are enjoying yourselves. Take care.
