We arrived late yesterday in San Sebastián (called Donostia in the Basque language), which is an hour’s bus ride from Bilbao. As you will be able to see in this live webcam view — if you view it when the sun is still up here — we’re now on the coast. The webcam shows the current scene on the La Concha beach, with the Bay of Biscay beyond. The sun hasn’t set yet at 9:00pm as I type this, so there should be plenty of chances to view the beach even from the North American time zones.
Enjoy.

I found some more webcams for Venice that offer more nice live views of the Grand Canal and the Venice Lagoon:

We arrived in Trieste yesterday evening, travelling by train (actually 3 trains) to get from Bolzano in the mountains to Trieste by the sea (the Adriatic).
Sorry for the break in the posting recently. I’ll blame it on a recent focus on packing suitcases as well as packing in as much as possible in Verona during our final days there .That, combined with not always having a computer available to work on and not always having reliable internet access led to a lack of posts this week.
