Hailing in Bilbao
Greetings from an anonymous Internet café in Bilbao. Hopefully everything I type here comes out okay, because the keys on the keyboard are all in the wrong place. What’s the value of North American dominance in the high-tech industry if I can’t even type on a foreign keyboard?
Last night my flight was delayed by over three hours and I didn’t get in until late, but spent the whole day today in downtown Bilbao, in and around the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, a spectacular building by renowned architect Frank Gehry. It was the only reason I came to Bilbao, and I’m pleased to report that it didn’t disappoint. I took a hike in the hills above the city, overlooking the museum. I spent a while inside the museum as well, and particularly enjoyed their photography exhibit. From safe inside the museum, I also enjoyed watching a hail storm, snow, rain, sunshine, and wind like you wouldn’t believe, all within the span of 3 or 4 hours. What a crazy city!
