Oh, the irony

We hear winter is coming to the Midwest this weekend - this past week it came to Spain as well (see http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe/01/09/madrid.snow.airport/index.html for what it did to travel in Madrid yesterday). As a result we witnessed some ironic things on the way back from our holiday trip Tues/Wed (blog post in the works...) and after we got back to San Sebastian on Thurs. Thought we'd post a couple of short clips to show you what we mean.







One video we did not get was of people walking through the snow, barefoot, in their Euro-mini suits to swim in the bay after the storm Friday morning - air temp 28 deg F, brisk wind, water temp MAYBE 50 deg F (muy loco, si???).
