Spain Day 11- Bilbao/ Lekeitio

23 Oct 2019

Went to Mercado de La Ribera again for breakfast.
This round having Gulas pintxo @ Ambarria (2eur)

Next, head to Bizkaibus Termibus station.
Bizbaia bus (3.35eur) to towards Larrotegi (Leikeitio)
Linea A3512, 1h25m ride


Lekeitio
Fishing town and known for their whale hunters.










Remember to check with driver when alight as sometimes small town alight and board point is different. Just 2hrs is more than sufficient for a tour in this small town.
Bizkabus head back to Bilbao (3.35eur).
When reached Bilbao, took renfe train to Portugalete and saw this unique building, so narrow and wonder how is the interior layout.

Renfe train to Portugalete (2.45eur)

Punete Colgante Vizkaya bridge
Took the gondola (0.45eur) to the other side of town, Getxo.

Getxo, mostly an affluent residential area. Housing here are more modern and newer.



The butter sugar bun (1.90eur) pretty good. 

Strolling around the town awhile and took a metro (1.80eur) back to Casco Viejo.

Walk around the old town, head to carrefour before headed back to hostel.
Dinner time, Mercado de La Ribera again. After several tries, Arambarri is still the best in this Mercado.

Terri duck
Roasted pork (2.50eur)
La Vermuteka 
Goat cheese & jamon pintxo & Jamon crepe pintxo (4eur)
Arambarri
Vermouth and gambas pintxo (5eur)
Mojito (6eur)

The weather is very wet and cold, too lazy to explore further and the Mercado is so convenient, just 3mins walk from my hostel.

Wok house again.
This round trying their Thai Style Fried rice (6.50eur)
Still prefer their canto style better.
