Mountain High

I am in the Pyrennees.  The high, high mountains are a bit further north, and I am avoiding them not only to spare my legs but also because going there would take me away from my next major destination, Zaragoza.  Despite not being in the highest of high points around, there is a lot of climbing and lots of descending, but also lots of beautiful roads and scenery.  The culture here feels more insulated from the Catalunya that I witnessed in Barcelona and Figueres.  It´s amazing what mountains can do.
 
This is a short post, because I´m taking an unusual lunch-time break to write because I don´t know where I will next find internet.  This small city of Berga was a surefire bet.  I might not see a city this big until Sunday or Monday.  But I am taking good notes of the highlights and thoughts of my days, and rest assured a typically long-winded update is forthcoming.  So stay tuned for:
   ... my adventures in France
   ... the highest mountain pass so far, and probably for the entire trip
   ... why i slept in a bathroom last night
   ... more photos!!
