Andorra, then back through France.
Andorra from the south seemed to be a shopping centre, specializing in cars,
bikes and accessories, I guess there must be some tax benefits, but to the north
the shops stop and the countryside starts to show through ending with a pretty
long climb.
Once up the 2408m climb out of Andorra, you’re in the clouds, then it’s
down into France.
Many years ago I used to go to Monte Carlo covering a classic car rally that
went that way every February. I never had the opportunity to have a look round
some of the picturesque towns we went through, so I thought this would be a
good opportunity. So I set off for one that particularly wanted to revisit.
Unfortunately I’d got the names confused and ended up in a grotty town
instead; still at least I came across St Georges Gorge.
Over the Alps, ignoring some dodgy barrier, well as the warning’s weren’t
written in English, it can’t have been important, and I had been waiting
20mins with no sign of anything happening.
