APRIL 11TH: Diputación and Sailing the river

Today, we had a slightly shorter day.  First, we all went to one class at Julio Caro Baroja High School.  It was very interesting to compare and contrast the school to Scituate High-school.  Then, we all met in the lobby in order to walk to the metro, in which we took into Bilbao.  In Bilbao, we went to the Diputación.  It was a very beautiful building for the outside, but it was even more amazing on the inside.  There were elegant red carpets and marvels pillars covered in bronze.  There were ornate paintings on the walls that gave insight into Spain’s past.  For example married women wore long hair and head scarves while in married women wore short hair and no head scarf.  After leaving the Diputación, we had some time to explore La Gran Vía.  Next, we walked to the river in order to catch our boat ride.  We all started on the top of the boat, but one the rain started to get worse, we all decided to come down.  The ride was very relaxing and we were able to see the whole entire city.  We also went under many bridges.  To finish up our day, we had a little bit more free time to explore the city of Bilbao before riding the metro back to Getxo.
