Now in Spain


We hit the North coast of Spain which was magnificent driving along the coast cliffs & little towns & are now in Bilbo Bilbao, where the increadible museum is by Guggenheim with amazing architecture & some fantastic art, but the building really is something to see! You may remember it was in one of those pictures from the leaflets out of the age last year, (the world form the air with fantastic photos from all over the world), anyway we had no idea we were in the area & it just popped up in front of us, I love it when that sort of stuff happens, complete surprise & a treasure of an experience. There were only a couple of art pieces that took our breath & imagination away, again much Religious artifacts & paintings & then some contempoary stuff that just leaves you wondering? But the building itself was worth the visit, not a straight line anywhere except the floor, covered in titanium that shimmers & the whole place has a feel of the sea & fish.
I reckon that´s where they got the design for Federation Square, very similar concept with the building structure visible & being able to look through glass & sections of the building.
The food here is quite different lots of little tapas, (small portions of fancy foods) that sit along the bar, usually uncovered, no prices on anything & we have no idea what we´re ordering or how it´s done so it´s quite funny to watch us stumble our way through each country & culture & situation.
Still going well but Kyle´s missing the pool table as they don´t seem to play in France or Spain & I think he´s looking forward to going back to England where he can play & talk to others for a change!
have no idea what we´re doing from here, I have to go back to England for a second, which is good news but a bit of a pity as it cuts into our budget & travel destinations, but as long as the outcome is wothwhile then that will be good.
Spain was quite different driving into with baskets of hanging flowers in the streets & many high rised apartments, one after the other, all on top of each other:
It´s much harder to get around as we know no Spanish, at least in France my high school French helped a little!
Sighning off
