Woke up to rain, again! We'd already decided we'd drive into Girona. When we arrived there, we met an English couple who told us there was a procession this evening to celebrate the Three Kings, so we thought we'd stay and watch it. We strolled around the old town - the Jewish Quarter and around the Cathedral and had a lovely pizza for lunch and then it started raining! We saw a bit of the parade but the rain was so heavy, we decided to head back to L'Estartit. Girona is a lovely town and we enjoyed walking around and seeing the sights.

We woke up to rain! But, decided to go for a stroll anyway. We walked down to the seafront and along to the marina - it was very nice! And, it stopped raining! We strolled back and the rain started in earnest and it rained for the rest of the day and evening.

We left Peniscola at 10.00 this morning and arrived at L'Estartit at 4.30 in the afternoon - a lovely drive through really different scenery - long, wide rivers and snow-capped mountains! We stopped at Manresa to do some shopping and I took this photograph.

We cycled as far as we could again today and then walked along to the tower. Sat and had lunch and read our books in gorgeous sunshine again! We're leaving here tomorrow so have to start packing up.

We walked along the beach up to the castle to see the fireworks at midnight - they were giving away free fizz and grapes!! We went back today during to day to see the market which was on at the castle.

Cycling and walking today! Warm sunshine again - we cycled as far as the entrance to the National Park and then walked up the track to the top. Lovely views and no-one in sight!

We've been out cycling today - again in gorgeous sunshine! We cycled as far as we could on the tarmac road then, at the entrance to the National Park, the track was a bit stoney so we sat and ate our lunch and read our books.
