Great Bilbao Sightseeing!

Suzie’s friend Bart lives here in Bilbao and gave us a generous and super-informative tour of the City along with lots of background on this region and it’s role in Spanish history.

We wandered around the City sampling the neighborhoods and the food. Whoever invented tapas had a great idea!

We learned about the Spanish revolution and the Basque Region’s effective strategy for retaining a prominent political role. We sat in a beautiful plaza for for a relaxing lunch and delightful conversation.

We visited San Francisco (a Bilbao neighborhood) for delicious hot chocolate with a floral-infused-water chaser. I’m simpatico with their culinary sensibility because I love water and chocolate together as well. So, we travelled about 9,000 miles to go to San Francisco and drink hot chocolate. Well, it was with it. Bilbao is a lovely city in a beautiful country with friendly people.

Thanks Bart!Read more
