    Another Reason I'd Rather Be in Bilbao


    A couple walks past 'Quantum Field- X3', an art installation by Japanese artist Hiro Yamagata, in Bilbao, northern Spain, January 27, 2005. The work, which is displayed outside the Guggenheim museum, consists of two giant cubes made up of holographic panels that reflect and refract visible light frequencies.REUTERS/Vincent West
    As a side note, people in the Basque country (Euskal Herria) think of their 'nation' as Basque, while they live in "the Spanish State". So saying Bilbao (or Bilbo) is in Spain, is like saying Belfast is in England. Even the people who want to continue with Spanish government would say they live in the Basque region('nation') of Spain (the governmental entity).
