Bilbao
Guggenheim, Bilbao
San Sebastian
PinxtosArriving in Bilbao we headed straight into town to meet Hanli and Andrew who had flown in from South Africa. Despite a rainy evening we had a great time in the old city trooping from bar to bar, eating tapas washed down with a lot of Rioja ( red ) or Albarino ( white ) wine. The streets were filled with 'marching' bands and local revellers. On Saturday we spent the morning at the Guggenheim Museum; Frank Gehry's masterpiece of architecture which put Bilbao on the map. San Sebastian, the food capital of Spain was our next stop. It's a beautiful beach city on the Atlantic coast of Spain. Our goumet group did our best to visit every tapas bar in the old city, eating Pinxtos and tasting lots of Spanish wine. It's just amazing how easy it is to split a bottle of wine between 6.
