Bilbao

Saturday, September 11th, 2010


The next day we went to Bilbao. This city is famous mostly by Gugelheim museum which is nice, but I think that the architect went crazy and the museum looks like unfinished fantasy of somebody. Probably it’s not even well built. Watching the corrosion on the outside wall and the well known history of the architect doing works just for eye, not for any function, the building seems like s***… Anyway, lot of people tells you that Bilbao is not a nice city, but I disagree. I liked it a lot. Much more than for example Pamplona.









Corrosion


The bridge above the museum is quite cool



Ok, so enough of the museum. Let’s move to the city.

Nice and really elegant bridge.

San Sebastian

Friday, September 10th, 2010


Beach in the centre

The next day we headed from Pamplona to San Sebastian. San Sebastian is way nicer than Pamplona. It has really amazing beach in the city centre. It’s really very nice. We also got a sensational accommodation comparing to Pamplona. It’s no wonder that this city is so famous.


Fish market (still in Pamplona)

But before we went to San Sebastian, we visited local market in Pamploa.


Salted fishes





After seeing the market and all the fishes, we went to the bus to go to San Sebastian. The landscape was really amazing.
