We got an early start, walking though Nimes in the still dark, while the shop keepers swept the streets from the mess of the just-ended parties. I kept nodding throughout the car ride, but we made one brief stop to admire Carcassonne from a distance.
We arrived in Bilbao in the afternoon and walked around the Guggenheim before happening across more of our group making their way to the hotel, just arrived from the states.
