Bayonne

Before heading back to Poitiers, we spent our day in Bayonne, which is a city north of Biarritz. We took the bus and ended up in the centre ville in less than 15 minutes. Bayonne is a lot smaller, and has more of a French feel to it. Here are a few pictures that I'd like to share; my camera's battery died early in the day so I didn't take many.

That morning I oogled over a surf instructor... and I took a picture from far away.. I don't know if this is legal!

A castle/restaurant in the middle of Bayonne. I think it may be a hotel also.. but I am not very sure.

Please ignore the bright sun in the corner of this picture.. this was the only semi good picture I took of the cathedral. 

Inside the cathedral's courtyard.... a little bit empty, but it's still has a nice courtyard with nice grass. 

The walkway surrounding the courtyard. 

A little peek into one of the streets. This street has Spanish banners draping from building to building. 

After exploring and eating ice cream, we headed towards the train station to wait for our train and parted home. It was nice to feel that "going home" feel, I thought I wasn't going to have it because it's not really home for me. It made me feel like I had began to adapt to the French way of life.
