St. Jean to Valcarlos

We are starting with "easy days".  Only 8 miles today, but most of it either up or down on steep asphalt.  As you can see in the photos below, it was beautiful country, with dairy cattle and sheep scattered across the hills.  Ruth says it was so green it almost hurt her eyes.  Started out foggy and about 52F, but the sun burned through and warmed to 77F.  We are staying in a very nice municiple refuge, with a great kitchen.  We are planning spaghetti for supper.

Near the France-Spain border
Looking up the valley into Spain
The town of Valcarlos, Spain
Looking out the window of our one-night home
