Masella<\/a>, where we have our season tickets, has decided to be the first ski resort in the Pyrenees to open. The big season opening party is tomorrow.

Fewer live sessions at the conference today, so we were hopeful that we could sneak out for a flight this afternoon. It wasn’t to be. The ok forecast of yesterday deteriorated and then it clouded over mid-morning. The 11.30am update confirmed that it would be cold, cloudy and generally a bit pants. We still needed to get away from our screens for a few hours though, and it wasn’t nice walking or cycling weather, so we went for lunch. It’s the main meal of the day here and nearly every restaurant serves a ‘menu del dia’ or menu of the day, which usually consists of three or four courses, wine and water, and costs between 9 – 18 euros. We dined royally at the Cafe Europa in the Plaza Mayor in Olot for 10 euros each and then went home for a siesta. It’s good to fit in with the locals once in a while. <\/p>\n
