Today was Michaela and Wayne’s last day and the forecast looked to be the worst of their stay. Wayne decided he wanted to go horse riding, so I arranged this with Willem. I usually go riding in Batet where you get fantastic views of the volcano of Croscat and the snow covered Pyrenees, but under this morning’s leaden skies, we were robbed of the nice views. We caught our horses in the field and then went on a tour of the volcanoes, fields and forests around Batet. Half way around the ride the sun came out and it was beautifully clear.
Meanwhile, Geoff and Michaela went around Besalu, exploring the river side, Jewish museum and baths.
We wanted to go for a last flight on the way to the airport, but the wind was north and there was nowhere we could go in the remaining time. Instead we went for a Spanish lunch… 3 courses, wine, water and bread for 12.50 euros. I won’t need to eat again for a week!
We had a lovely time with M & W and were sad to leave them at the airport.

good call, no naked horse riding!
You didn’t have to leave us at the airport, we offered (in fact pleaded!) to stay 😉
Thanks again for a great holiday and for looking after and entertaining us so well.
Call that a horse? looks like your feet are nearly scraping the ground!
