The Pyrenees

Today we ventured south of Helen and Georges to the base of the Pyrenees mountains, through small villages drove along side the river at the base of the mountains just like in the Tour de France. Picked fresh figs beside a creek and rosemary growing wild to make some petit fig and goats cheese tarts for pre dinner snacks. Took a drive up a track to see the views of the Asasp valley. The road was so steep I walked down it a way as I did not fancy the drive back down.. We are in the Basque country of France and so close to the Sapnish border truely beautiful country.
