The funicular was waiting for us and we got into the top car, so we could watch the opposite car coming down at us! Once at the top, we grabbed a beverage at the Café Txakoli and walked back to the hillside adjoining the funicular depot for gorgeous views of Bilbao. Will be back! Pro tip: Use the Barik card. It is inexpensive (€0.50 each way) compared to buying a ticket (€2.50 one way and €4.30 round trip).

This can make it a little challenging. A "Metro this way" sign would be awesome for tourists like me. The station is underground, beneath Urquijo Avenue. Brightly lit, clean, no smell of pee. There is a display that shows when the next train is coming. There are automated ticket vending machines on the ticketing concourse and turnstiles. It's another set of stairs, escalator or lift down to the platform level. The machines did have an "English" button so I was able to buy my ticket without difficulty.
