Today was a day with two faces... in the morning we had quite good weather and beautiful roads in Spain until we reached the French border where we unfortunatly got quite some rain which lasted until the end of the day. Nevertheless we had a great time and fun and also the scenery in rain is still awesome.
Now ging into the High Pyrenees in France, unfortunatly the weather was not going to be much better today as the day before, however as we wll know there is no bad weather but only bad clothees :-)
