Maria, Maria, Maria! The Best Guide in Girona!
... in a Zorb Ball and thne testing their luck in the 'rotating' Sprite bottle, we headed out for a nice stroll on the Passeig de Muralla. Taking in the views of the city and the snowy peaks of the Pyrenees with the sun setting in the background. Then it was a local dish of Costanyas, some Kürtos and lastly some good Girona liquor before heading back to the train for the return to Barcelona!
What a great trip to an incredible city and a great day spent with a good friend!

What doesn't break you makes you ...
Barcelona to Calogne
... we could get it cheaper else where, we haven't found any yet! Yesterday was mostly driving along motorways to start (there are an insane amount of toll booths) and then along the costal mountains. We had one hiccup with our first toll booth experience. We followed a van to what appeared to be the only lane that would accept vehicles like ours only to get there and see you have to have a prepaid ...
