Hi Andrew,

Glad you liked my home town (Donostia, in basque). I still think that is one of the most beautiful cities I know (and I do quite a lot!). Being away for(too)long now makes me appreciate it even more. I encourage everybody to visit the Basque country  (btw, the new Guggenheim museum in Bilbao, 100 kms from San Sebastian is one of the best ways of using your Leicas). Just amazing. Besides, food and wine out of this world.  

Again, I haven't cross no other leica-men there (the same thing in other spanish cities I visited recently, like Sevilla or Barcelona). Funny, because here in Brussels it's not rare to find some leicas around (particularly M6's).
Regards,
Francisco
