My prediction of weather change came true as I woke up to solid rain. Not super heavy, but definitely a solid rain, not a drizzle. Decided to gear up and walk in any case, supposed to be a shorter day, but with all of the ups and downs in volved, it didn’t feel like a light day. I started at 9:00am and other than a quick stop for coffee didn’t reach Deba until 2:00pm. Found a nice spot for lunch and had the menu of the day, Mixed Salad and Bacalao. Tasty and hit the spot. One thing I’ve learned about walking in the rain, is that regardless of what rain gear you have, you will be thoroughly soaked if you walk for long enough. Today was no exception to this rule. Any Goretex type rain gear is good for a certain number of hours but will “wet through” after some period of times. Waterproof boots are pretty much the same and will eventually end up wet. After lunch found my Pension and washed all of my already soaking wet clothes. Interestingly the transit remains so good in this area, I could cross the street, hop on the Euskotren and be in San Sebastain in 55 minutes! This seems to be a surf town with a beautiful beach as a central feature. The town is so steep that there are municipal elevators and escalators to get you up the hills. 22,000 steps.
