Pyrenees - Ripoll

Stopped on way into mountains at Besalu, an historic fortified village with old Jewish quarter and much photographed castellated bridge. Huge, like 4ft, Aliquera(?) fish swimming around in the river below. Shopped in Ripoll and then diverted down a very narrow one way track, with over hangs, due to road works. Only just made it out onto the main road over a hump backed bridge.

Stayed a few miles further on for 2 nights at a small hill farm site (2900 ft) full of rallying NL's. A basic rural site by a small river in a wooded valley. No TV, no Wifi , no mobile phone - but very peaceful. Had a wander round the farm doing 'sheep spotting' and then had a really nice, home cooked meal of lamb in the little restaurant. The farm, which used to be a mill, has been in the family for 3 generations, its a shame the farmer/owner 'just' has 4 daughters and 3 sisters.
