Carretera General Soldeu, Andorra, 376-852-367
... having a beer and watching a man try to dig his van out of the snow. To my knowledge his van is to this moment where it was when I left the bar. <br><br> I just wanted to take this opportunity to post some pictures of Canillo when it's snowy and the sun comes out. Don't have too many, but figured it was worth a post.<br><br>
Canillo, Andorra sirsmonkey42... at 7:30am. But it wasn't too long before all my amusement was replaced with respect. As we started up the mountains, it was easy to see that the nearly 2000m climb up to Canillo isn't a laughing matter. Turn after turn we zig-zagged up intensely steep grade in a 15 ton death trap, and our driver just bounced along as if it was nothing. I'm sure it really is nothing to someone who does that kind of thing everyday, because when we got to the first stop at ...
Canillo, Andorra sirsmonkey42Le plan original était d'aller à Cahors visiter un vignoble, mais puisque l'on n'a pas de voiture (considérant que les vignes sont dans des champs et non au centre ville) on n'a pas pu y aller. J'ai trouvé sur internet qu'il y avait plusieurs grotte dans le sud donc on en a choisi une pas trop trop loin et on a acheté nos billet de train.<br><br>Tarascon sur Ariege est à environ 1h15 de toulouse donc ca se fait quand meme bien. C'est un ...
Tarascon-sur-Ariège, Midi-Pyrénées, France marianmFound out today that the 90 day tourist visa that I thought we were granted for each country is actually for the combined Senchgen countries. Since we'll be at least 60 days in France alone, it means we won't be doing the France, Italy, Greece and then Turkey route we had planned on in the length of time we'd ...

Racing around in the mornings trying to gather bits of clothing with frozen fingers and struggling to see through the clouds our breath made all while holding a flashlight eventually caused us to retreat inside. <br><br>Much warmer and more convenient, but there’s something I miss about the sounds of the ...

It was a shame that we had no sausage skins to stuff, but the meat is still great to use in patties, balls or loaves. <br> <br>For a special treat for working through all the meat, Justin saved a special piece for Brian and I: the brain. Fried up with sage and butter and ...
Boussenac, Midi-Pyrénées, France 2totango... of apprehension before starting. Like attempting to figure out which way was up on the harness. Or when Donna wanted me to tie my security knot (walking me through of course). Then there’s the whole ‘where to start?’ when staring straight up at this seemingly flat face of rock. <br><br> Watching others you wonder ‘how on earth?’, but then it’s your turn and you preserve, slowly going up and up with each little ...
Tarascon-sur-Ariège, Midi-Pyrénées, France 2totango... called ‘Patou’ are raised with a herd (Pyrenees mountain dogs). As a result they will guard and defend their animals from any predator they may face - including humans. If you happen to wander in range they will bark furiously and give you many warnings to get away. If you don’t heed the warnings - you’re at your own risk with a fierce dog that comes up to your ...

What were they trying to say?<br><br>Walking along the uneven ground avoiding the stalagmites that pop up to perfect tripping height. Everyone with his own flashlight to guide the way. Further and further into the cave as daylight recedes and eyes adjust to the new light, wonderful images are revealed. Wide expanses of huge underground rooms - like a palace. Richly ...
Niaux, Midi-Pyrénées, France 2totango... up, but we weren't familiar with each other. I'm sure I looked much different as well. I had longer curly hair. I'm in grad school. I've matured. I'm sure I'm more fit than I was back in 1999 as well. So much has changed. Underneath it all I could still feel that he's my brother. After the awkward catch-up talk, we were able to reminisce about all the good times we had back in García Barbón. He didn't really show his excitement, but I could tell he was. He ...
