Travel Diary Part 2: Bilbao & San Sebastian.
Hey Guys!
Here is the second part of our Spain Travel diaries: Our second half of the trip was spent in
Bilbao and San Sebastian.
Bilbao is in the northern part of Spain in the Basque country
they actually speak Basque and also Spanish. Their signs tend to be in Basque
but they always have a Spanish translation down below. Sadly we were only in
Bilbao for only a day. A couple of us
actually got sick that day, the difference from warm weather to rain hit us
hard. Luckily we were able to hit all
the major attractions of the city from the Guggenheim Museum to eating pintxos
at the Mercado de la Ribera (that were
delicious ) followed with a just stroll along the cannel.
After our one day in Bilabo we took the train all the way to
Donostia / San Sebastián (2 hours ) its
where the royal family used to take
their vacations. San Sebastian is located near the ocean and has two amazing
beaches. On top of that you can take a hike that leads you to the perfect view
spot where you can look over the whole town. San Sebastian has amazing food and
is known as a foodie heaven, it currently has 5 Michelin stars restaurants.
These two city’s were amazing and very different from the
typical image of Spain. I have also post a short video of our trip down below.
