Haha. Yeah, I think that San Fermin is more about the other "festivities" than anything. I was there during the summer for a day. No where to stay, so we got sleeping bags which is common. I was very badly hung over from a 4 day long drinking binge. I slept in some woods at night and got soaked because it rained. Got up the next morning and didn't get to the street until 7:45. The bulls run at 8:00. It was packed...for all that, I never saw a bull. I didn't "run" with the bulls either though. I heard too many jokes about Americans dying.
The topless beach in Barca was the highlight of my trip.
Spanish women are beautiful...although that might be awkward with the missus. It would be an awesome drive from San Sebastian to Barca. I just hated the bus because some of the coolest stuff I saw was from the bus windows and I couldn't stop to enjoy it.
I never got to go to the islands. I am going to stop there the next time I go to Spain. Enough reminiscing..I'm getting home sick. Enjoy the Mahou!
Buen viaje!
