Our final days in Spain were spent in Bilbao. From here we fly to Dublin to meet Pam and James for a week in Doolin on the west coast of Ireland.
We enjoyed an afternoon in the Center City of Bilbao after arriving by bus. The ride was scenic through mountains, although not as dramatic mountain passes as we had on the bus ride to San Sebastian a day earlier.
Visiting the Guggenheim took most of a day and we really enjoyed it. Everyone had told us that the building was wonderful to see. But we found the exhibits wonderful too.
As a bonus, we happened onto a really nice hotel with a spectacular breakfast.

In the morning we walked to the airport bus from our hotel, about 20 minutes. It was Sunday. We passed several groups of men who seemed to be just leaving the bars and clubs at 7:30AM. As we waited with one other couple at the bus stop, we were entertained by a gaggle of club-exiting older teens. It is great to not be that young!
