Last days

We're in Lérida (Lleida), on our way back to Barcelona. After the previous post, we've been to Cadaqués (Dalí's house and beach life) and Andorra (mountains and tax-free shopping).

Traffic in Andorra was even more confusing than in Spain (that's what you get when you combine the best of Spain and France, said T). One of the local specialities included a "two-way lane" that worked as a bus lane (either way) or as a regular lane, depending on what the light sign above said... Another favorite is the "traffic peanut" (cf. roundabout).

Andorra is also a conveniently compact country. It's fair to say that we saw most of the country in one day ;) The best part was driving up to (another) skiing center, where we took the lift up and hiked up some more, reaching 2702 meters! Nice place for a picnic... Also saw some eagles right above our heads. The hike down the mountain was rather demanding but satisfying.

This has been a really strange vacation (weather-wise). About half of the days extremely hot, and the rest unreasonably chilly. Good thing, though, that the rain stopped after the first couple of days and we've remained dry.

So back to Barcelona next, hope to avoid being robbed again...
