This week's mystery town, San Sebastian, is also known as Donostia-San Sebastian. It is located in the Basque country of Spain, on the coast of the Bay of Biscay. In addition to Spanish, they also speak Basque, or Euskera, there. Donostia is the Basque name for the town. [Spain actually has four official langauges: Castellano (Spanish), Gallego (Galician), Vasco (Basque or Euskera), and Catalan.]
In addition to its
film and
jazz festivals, San Sebastian is famous for its Playa Concha, a gorgeous semi-circular beach with an elegant walkway along its edge.

how pretty. My dad has a cousin that lives there but we have never visited. I think when we go in November, we are going south, otherwise totally want to go there.
Random question - are you on Ravelry?
