We decided before past VCIM, to take some days in Andorra after this meeting to try to breathe a little bit ...
So last week adding some oil, changing rear brake pads and ... on the road again !
Leaving home, direction Béziers and Narbonne, then Corbières area :
Strange water color
Nice small roads
No it is not Toscana !!
Yes , Garmin allow to take narrow roads also

Near the Cathar town
Storm is not far (as usual in the Pyrenees...)
Last time we stopped here was with a Latvian black Vara ... (and 2 blues lovers
)

Andorra is a nice commercial town in a deep valley; we had nice view from the hotel
and from the roof terrasse with a bar
Not too much people in the hotel swimming pool ...

Some more ... Small villages in deep valley
Nice & "authentic"
We leave then to enter in Catalonia
It becomes quickly more "mediterranean "
and dry (and hot
)
Keeping north direction again , nice deep gorges (no not tarn Gorges
)
the mountains close
We are now in
Pay attention to the signs, we met a doe, without harm to her and for us ...
Serious things begin , we are approaching Port de la Bonaigua
http://www.vci-forum.com/index.php?topic=677.msg12296#msg12296
As usual in the Pyrenees , a lot of horses alone in the mountain
The other side is also nice and stunning
Nice vue from the hotel
Time to begin our return home
Going east we find again dry landscapes
A night in Roses where they stole our Norwegian elan (NALE)
; Time to drink a coffee on a Cadaquès terrasse
And we are back in France - Banyuls wine trees ...
And Picnic place in Collioure
Sorry most of the pictures have been done riding ...
