So at last we made it to Andorra, the town of Julia-something, which we initially mistook for the capital. The TI-babe set us straight on that. After spending the night at the nice
aire at Julia-something, we decided to drive the length of Andorra to the French border and then back to the Spanish side to shop at the LeClerc there. 6k. The upscale shopping was on the French side, we understood, but not needing anything upscale, we headed back toward Spain, and Figueres. We actually liked Andorra though we hardly did it justice, touristically. Maybe next time.

In our excitement we missed the actual welcome sign |
|
What Andorra is about, mostly, is shopping |
|
And outlets |
|
Street scenes |
|
It really is just this valley/canyon |
|
Not too small for yet another Romanesque church |
|
Tobacco...there's a museum of tobacco in the capital...tax-free tobacco? |
|
A river runs through it |
|
Building up, out of the valley |
|
Biggest LeClerc ever..and why not, catering to Spanish, French, and international tastes |
|
Life-sized animatronics |
|
For sale, too...11k euros; just what your toddler's playroom needs |
|
Killer wine section |
|
Single malts |
|
Why so many Spanish pigs have hearing disabilities |
|
More animatronics for sale |
|
Cigar department; I almost wished I smoked again |
|
Someday I'll post a YouTube of the roaring T-Rex at the LeClerq in Andorra |
