Nothing of real interest here just lots of driving. I will say the toll roads in France are crazy expensive. One section was about 27 Euros the other 20 something as well. We did stop for lunch/dinner in Biarritz France. Very close to the boarder with spain, suppose to be known for its sandy beaches. For me the fact that there are these huge rock bolder cliff things with beaches in between was diffrent. There were waves that some people were trying to surf, I say trying becuase they sure didnt stay up for long if they even did stand up. After leaving France as we went into spain we hit a traffic jam.. complete stand still some car somehow went behind some construction baricades and was smashed up. Joe found it interesting because somehow the car lost its motor. So we roll into my moms town around 9pm. No one knew we were comming because we were not suppose to arrive until the next day. Note someting odd about europe is the sun was just setting at the time we rolled in so it really wasnt too late. Anyway so we go to one aunts house and no ones there. Oh no you would normally think but not in this town, here you do this.. you first check the others aunts house, on the way you cover half the town and two of the three bars, still no luck as the old ladies sitting in the corner and they will point the way to someone you are related to. So anyway to make a long story short we found my aunts. So this is wear i narate for joe.. we meet my cousins and second cousins and ate dinner. Everyone eats eggs at about 10:30pm. We found out that monday would be a big procession in honor of the patron saint of the towns second church, and that one of my 2nd cousins would be dancing (her & 10 guys).
