Spain--part 2

From Gallicia we flew to the Basque country into Bilbao.  Bilbao is gorgeous and somewhat modern.  One of the Guggenheim Museums is there.  We did a 30 min dash through the museum.  Modern art is crazy! We then drove almost 2 hours--kind of through the Pyrenees to Rioja.  Rioja is gorgeous.  They grow temperanillo grapes to make Rioja wines.  You're welcome!

We were only here 1 night and 2 half days.  Wish we had more time.  We explored Bilbao, toured a winery, and we visited the largest wine museum in the world.  It was cool, but we were all so exhausted it was hard to fully appreciate it.









Leaving modern Bilbao--on to Rioja--sorry for all the photos.  It is breathtaking
