We're back online again after a few days driving in the mountains - I've gone round enough hairpin bends to last me a lifetime! Had a spectacular run on Monday up to the Col de Soulor and then a hair raising drive up to the Col d'Aubisque. (The last time we came over this one, a good few years ago, was in thick fog!!)
No, Maurice didn't suddenly shrink. These three giant bikes (See next photo) are to mark the fact that the Tour de France goes over this Col. The French are so imaginitive.
We were going to make a phone call from here but the queue was too long.............

The sheep were fascinated by the campervans.
Eventually, and many hairpins later, we found a good Aire at Laruns. Just a huge car park really, but marked out for 'vans and thoughtfully placed just near the main street. Main thing though - the view.
