Waking up the first day of October on the sea offshore Spain. Pink colouring in the sky in early morn, the rest is blue. We passed metal tall windmills twirling and they are attached to the breakwater. Parked now at the port city of Bilbao Spain. We will do a walkabout. 

After breakfast we take the complimentary bus shuttle into Bilbao. There are choices and we consult with tourist information representative at the port. we decide to take a long walk along the river Bilbao. Past parks and lots of random sculptures. 

Tree tops changing colour. Palm trees. Walking along river towards old town. Bridges. Some local artists, others selling knock off street wares.  Sculpture. Benches. Basketball hoops. Walking. Walking. Walking. Pass the Guggenheim museum and see lots of our fellow passengers along the way. Over 12 Kms in total today. Across the river is the old town. We go there and take pictures mostly of architecture. I will try to add photos when I get home and the wifi complies. While on the ship I post my photos on Facebook when I can. 

We cross back across the river and through the main modern street toward our shuttle stop we catch a bus back to the ship, grab some lunch and have a swim in the salt water pool. I think it was 22-23 degrees today, plenty warm.
