corner view "from where i´m sitting"







On Sunday Jorge and I were on our way to France. But by the time we got to San Sebastian it was pouring down rain. So we called some friends who live there and met them for an impromptu lunch at an Andalucía restaurant (ie. lots of fried food). After, we headed to a local bar for coffee and gin and tonics... The usual progression when out with friends. That´s where these were taken. Supposedly, this is the "in" bar where all the surfers hang out, according to my "in" friend... who doesn´t surf.... or read blogs... ;)

Next week´s theme is "bliss."

Happy Corner View!

P.S. My visits have been very sporadic lately. I´ve been working on some projects, and will probably be all over the place for a while. Thanks for bearing with me.

¡Dos besos muy gordos!

Good luck with all your projects Jane. Like these pics. and really like that tattoo. San Sebastian is on my list of places to visit - it was the first overseas holiday my parents went to together.

coffee and g&t with friends sound perfect! the photos are great, they make me feel that rejoining the corner view club should be one of the projects I want to rejoin as I get back to regular blogging

thank you for your comment and birthday wishes!
