basque country

i stopped by the beaches of san sebastian before taking the bus to bilbao.
these two gems of a town are found in the spanish borders of basque country.
i must have went to more bars than i've ever been to in 2days,
for even breakfast was taken in a bar!i think the only food i ate outside that wasnt fr a bar were churros from a lil cafe.the pintxos tango.i couldn't resist going from bar to bar for the different pintxos.
the only problem w not understanding the language is that sometimes w food,
you get more than u ask for.
morcillas are not a kind of seafood.its pig's blood sausage.=O
a 20mins trainride off bilbao is the lil town of leioa.
who was having their annual umore azoka, translated literally as humour fair, the evening i visited.
in bilbao, the guggenheim musuem itself was as worthy of visit as the art exhibitions it held.there i stayed with antxoka and douglas.
both of whom made my visit particularly memorable by driving me out one afternoon to see all the lil seaside towns and countrysides with their sweet friend melissa.tho it was raining, it was lots of fun.
finally,
the last stop in spain found me at areeta's peunte colgante.this unesco site holds the first mechanical bridge in the world.
overnight train trip back.triple decker! =D
