A Pink Pig Goes on Vacation in Hendaye in the Basque Country and Discovers the Many Activities of the Txingudi Bay

Once upon a time, there was a pink pig named Rosie. She lived on a beautiful farm with other animals. One day, Rosie decided to go on a vacation to a place called Hendaye in the Basque Country. She packed her little suitcase and hopped on a train. The train ride was full of excitement and scenic views as Rosie looked out of the window.

When Rosie arrived in Hendaye, she couldn't wait to explore the place. She went to the beach and built sandcastles with other children. They laughed and splashed in the crystal-clear water. Later, Rosie visited the Txingudi Bay, where she saw people kayaking and sailing boats. She thought it looked like so much fun!

The next day, Rosie went hiking in the mountains. She saw beautiful flowers and listened to the chirping birds. It was a breathtaking experience! In the evening, Rosie joined a dancing class and learned some traditional Basque dances. She spun and twirled, feeling happy and full of energy.

On her final day in Hendaye, Rosie went to a local farm and helped feed the animals. She met a little lamb, a fluffy chicken, and a friendly cow. Rosie loved being around other animals, just like her friends back on the farm. It made her heart feel warm and fuzzy.
