Here are some more pictures from the weekend in Andorra.  The highlight was definitely snowboarding on a perfect day.  All the days were pretty nice, although it got pretty cold at night, which actually was nice to feel cold toes again, and to know that it might be the last time this winter.  Flying south like a bird soon.  Australia here I come!

On the drive north, we tried to visit Montserrat, a monastery placed in the middle of one of the world's largest rock mountains, that looks like a foreign planet. Rocks shooting out in all directions and standing high above the Spanish plains.  Driving up, we hit fog like none other.  You couldn't see anything.  50 feet was lucky.  Bits and pieces of the mountain would pop into view, and then vanish.  We stopped at a deserted church along the way, but by the time we got to the top, it was all covered in, so no monastery for us that day.

There are also some photos from our small village in the Pyrenees, complete with a farmers market right below our balcony, a river to walk along and awesome local architecture around.  Pretty sweet buildings in the Pyrenees, built to last a tough winter.

How bout that fog?  Montserrat up top
