Our last stop in Bilbao was the Basque Museum, one of the best such cultural museums we have seen. Alas, not much of it is in English, but the exhibits are sufficiently clear and interesting, and very well done, that it doesn't matter. If you see one
other museum in Bilbao, see this one.

Much of it is life-sized dioramas; normally I don't care for such, but these were
exceptionally well done |

| They had a no fotos policy, and thus my few pix won't do justice to the place |
 |
| The maritime displays were particularly good |
 |
The KO was this topo representation of Basque country, encompassing much of the
3rd floor, Bay of Biscay, Bilbao, Guernica, almost to Donostia |
