Lunes Lekuak (My Monday Spot)

This little basement patio in Egia, under the train station, is an oasis of cuteness in one of San Sebastián's toughest barrios.  They had cactuses before they were cool....heck, these people were cool before cool was cool.  It looks like a bar but it's not a bar. Best I can tell, it's a gathering place for old people, where wine probably costs .30 a glass and cards are shuffled for hours on end.  One of those spots, common in Egia, where time has just stood still.
