Perpignan and Barcelona. Catalan Country.

Off we go!

Unlike our mother-ship, this patriotic vessel (also called the best place in the world AKA France) there is no smiling help at gas stations. Yes! No windowcleaning-tirepumping-guudday madame- petrol joggies. But it puts the giggle back in your day, especially when something so easy-looking, like activating the pump, becomes not so easy-looking.
But off we are to Barcelona, dignity still intact.


This Pyramid shaped structure (we guess a temple) straddles the border between France and Spain.


Playa Catalunya






The Ramblas. Restuarants,mobile petshops (bunny was almost mine), tourists & tourists!







En Ruds eindig die dag met 'n yummy burger en fries!

Wisdom

An old cherokee tale tells of a grandfather teaching life principles to his grandson.
The wise old cherokee said: " Son, on the inside of every person a battle is raging between two wolves. One wolf is evil; it is angry, jealous, proud, lazy and unforgiving. The other wolf is good; it is filled with love, kindness, humility and self control. These two wolves are constantly fighting, " the grandfather said.
The little boy thought about it, and said, " Grandfather, which wolf is going to win?"
The grandfather smiled and said: " Whichever one you feed."
