We had planned to take the train up north to San Sebastián, but two weeks before our trip I realized that hardly any trains were running north because of an accident earlier this year. So we rented a car and stopped in Burgos to break up the trip.
It was a small, super peaceful city. We had lunch at a restaurant surrounded by locals and fans heading to the town soccer match, and then explored the Cathedral. We knew it was a UNESCO site and that El Cid is buried there, but the detail work inside was incredible! And we saw a piece of the True Cross.
As we drove north the plains turned into mountains before we arrived in San Sebastián.
Davey’s dad was waiting for us here and were having a blast exploring, eating pintxos, and seriously driving up our step count each day.
