Days 35 & 36 – Up, up up in the Pyrénées . . . Not

Tanking along on our way to Huttopia’s Font Romeu just this side of Andorra. Lovely fast straight roads. All needed. Longish journey today. Unable to let them know the Shazbies are coming. Stopped for lunch and gave them one more try. Oops. Seems this site doesn’t open until 15th June – today is 13th!! Didn’t read the small print.

We’re just over an hour’s drive or so from Carcassonne, which houses what seems like a pretty in tact Cité Médiéval. As Pat would say “Turn around when possible”.

Didn’t quite expect to be hit with a below the belt tourist punch within 20 metres of entering the ancient city walls.

Seems there’s no escape from the tourist dollar

Now we’re melting. When it’s cooler in Beastie’s innards, then you know it’s rather warm outside.

And when pigeons are lining up like diving ducks, you know it’s a good time to head for the pool.

But I’m glad I didn’t have to wear my woolly bonnet today.

Even the ancient towers seeked shade under their top hats.
