On Catalonia’s national day we hiked up Monteixo, and it was spectacular.

Estany d’Aixeous on the way up.

Flying the flag at the summit.

Pau and Boí on the way back down.

This gully with two different kinds of rock.

Cooling off.

Looking back up from the lake.

Views out over Aragon, France, and Andorra!

We had a really great trip, and the kids hiked all the way!

See her climb, so fast.

Mama and Papa went hiking on Monteixo for Mama’s birthday.

All set for school, even Cuca, in the bucket.

“Hey Papa there’s someone with the same paddles as you!”
