This is so cool. Spotted near the Rbera Market last week in Bilbao. I’ve seen various outdoor “workout areas” in Sevilla and Málaga but this was just three normal benches on the riverside outfitted with pedals. There was a young guy “cycling” on the third one. Great way to warm up too! Damn it was cold up there.

I arrived in Bilbao with a full itinerary of places to visit and revisit, armed with recommendations by friends and contacts from both Spain and abroad. Two of the most delightful finds were these two very different wine bars; one was just around the corner from the hotel, the other across the river in the old town. I loved them both. Stay tuned for my online Decanter wine-lovers city review…

I have decided that I either have to start travelling a lot more or never again. Tomorrow I am getting on a plane for the first time since 2019 and, yep, am stressed AF. The goodish news is that Spain has decided to end the public transport mask mandate on February 8th (instead of the previously threatened Feb 1st date) so at least this trip is covered. So to speak. After this, no idea.
But I have to say… I have always hated flying. Everything about it, and not just the gut-clenching fear upon taking off that we are all going to crash and burn. It’s all the fucking lost time it takes. Sure, this flight is only 1 hour 25 minutes, but then there’s getting to the airport two hours ahead of time, and upon landing (if there are no delays) another hour or so until finally arriving at the hotel. So I will have to leave home about 10.45 in the morning to (hopefully) open my hotel room door at 3.30 pm. I have planned for this. Got my ear buds charged, got my music, etc. And of course I have already started packing.
This is going to take DAYS…
