Sergey in Spain II

We flew from Sevilla to Barcelona on Monday, which was about 8 hours of travel (taking the bus to the airport, waiting at the airport, being in the air, taking an hour and 20 minute bus ride into BCN, etc). Whatsmore, RyanAir's color scheme is extremely abrasive and their "in case of emergency" instructions are on the back of the seat in front of you staring you in the face. I was clutching Sergey's arm and asking him "is that normal?" throughout the flight, and yet he still managed to sleep. But the weather in Barcelona was absolutely beautiful. And we stayed close to Montjuic and I got see a lot of things and areas that I haven't seen of Barcelona.

LOGRONO, THURSDAY
Jennis and Sergey in front of our favorite window display in Logrono. The store is for the elderly and the skeleton is holding a bedpan. Who would shop there?


Tapas.


BILBAO, FRIDAY
a really cool bathtub

We went to Bilbao on Friday morning at 7:30 am. We wandered around and climbed the same steps to the park that I climbed the first time I was there. And then we went into the Guggenheim which was amazing. There was a Murakami exhibit and some really cool video installations.
