holiday pics part 4
















Aste Nagusia, Bilbao.

We arrived in Bilbao on 22nd August, to find out that there was all kinds of things going on as part of a huge 10 day fiesta, celebrating the end of summer Basque style.
There were thousands of people on the streets, partying all day and night!
We saw amazing fireworks every night, street performances, parades, chess competitions, cooking competitions, live music...it was so much fun :)
You can find out more about this wonderful fiesta here and here.
