I am heading from Bilbao (which in Basque is Bilbo, which I find amusing) to a small town called Covadonga, and from there up to the Picos De Europa park, where I shall stay in a mountain hostel. It's a seven km walk, which works out to about four miles, though it has some ridiculous vertical gain. Still, I'm excited about getting up into the backcountry a little bit at least. Will also get to brush up on my hitchhiking skills, as I am altogether too lazy to walk the twelve km to the trailhead.

I am in desperate need of a decent book. The one I am currently hauling around is Tom Jones. I am less than thrilled about this, especially in the face of a nine hour bus ride tomorrow.

The Guggenheim is amazing, although after the building, the art inside it is a little disappointing. Eh.
