Day 12 -- Bilbao

One quick day in San Sebastian and were off to Bilbao to see the Guggenheim, and fly back to Barsa before our big flight home. Bittersweet is appropriate as we are sad the honeymoon is coming to an end but excited to get home.
There are 2 things to do in Bilbao, the Guggenheim and walk around the Old Quarter, but today we just went to the 'Goog'.
Without getting to think into Architectural commentary.. I love this building. I find it exciting and almost impossible to photograph. Every photo you frame up you see new curves and forms you want to capture. So what you end up doing is shooting tons of pictures and force yourself to seek more abstract compositions. Although this building is seemingly chaotic, it has a nice elegance that allows for balanced images. We had a great time exploring all the galleries inside, but sadly no pictures are allowed. Anyways here are some pics from the goog:
