14 degrees Celcius - about 55 degrees Farenheit.  The sun is desperately trying to break through the clouds but the memory of the recent rain lingers. This is Summer in Sebastian. Gosh, it is closer to winter in Valencia. San Sebastian is beautiful. Wealth oozes from the brick mortar of the mansions lining the city beaches, from the cashmere of the sweaters we sea and from the wetsuits of the children taking swimming lessons on the beach. San Sebastian is a classy place. Valencia, as much as we love it, simply is not. We have become accustomed to seeing inexpensive stretchy clothes, bad hair dye jobs and frankly, as many overweight people as we see in the States. Here, the svelte and polished look reign. We stayed in the Hotel Codina.  Four blocks from the Playa Odnareta and a decent value, relatively speaking.  A triple with a king bed and a single bed.  A lovely, modern bathroom, free wifi and breakfast.  126 euros.  Back to Valencia today, we think, unless we can't resist to stop in Rioja on the way home.
