After the walk back down from lunch we drove up to Ibardine, a village that exists purely for shopping. The French/Spanish frontier runs down the main street: on one side you have places to eat and drink, on the other side there are Cash-and-Carry type shops full of bargains (my Pastis was 2/3 the normal price). We resisted buying the bottled baby eels but did buy some more oven crockery to replace the ones we bought years ago. The third photo shows the amazing view from the main street..
We then drove down and looked around the beautiful St Jean-de-Luz, my first visit here. There are information boards on the sea wall showing how much of the original town now lies under the sea. Thankfully the sea defences built in the 17th Century have worked! We sat outside to have a very welcome 'demi' of beer before heading off back home.
