Some pretty keen action on the Col d'Aubisque - France hence crap spelling! - a 'cool' 37º in Tremp today and the hottest September temps in 35 odd years - so it was hotter before!

Glad a) we chose next week and b) I'm not a a certain other event

47º down in the Ebro basin ...

When you get to Collegats there's a great swimming place a few hundred metres upstream of the camping - just follow the river path as far as possible - beyond a place where cars can get to - and thew's a deep calm pool with a huge rock in the middle and a sort of 'beach' on an islet in the river - but be careful, the river levels can change as it's part of a hydroelectric/irrigation system.
