The route to Spain and Figueres took us across another pass--not so steep as the previous one, and with a breath of cool air at the top--and then through scenic valleys, past Girona, and ultimately to Quart, where we would spend the night before proceeding on to Figueres. Storing
Le Duc in Figueres would require another couple days of sorting, packing, and cleaning before the bus to Barcelona and the plane to San Francisco. We wound up in Quart because we had failed to appreciate the need for reservations at the campgrounds near Figueres. It was a national (Catalonia) holiday and a 4-day weekend, and very hot, and everything was
completo. We paid the price.

Leaving Andorra; big-time ski resorts nearby |
|
Another hill climb |
|
Another beautiful Roman bridge |
|
Down the road, another bridge and young people beating the
heat |
|
And another big Medieval bridge |
|
Gothic, no less |
|
At Quart, the fireworks started at about dark and lasted until 3 in
the morning |

Next morning view of the remains |
