There was no Spanish this morning so we were able to get organised for our couple of days away with Juste and Joséphine. Took the scenic route after lunch to Limoux going by way of Cucugnan with its flour mill, windmill and narrow streets. Fortunately, we didn't have to pass through the very narrow Gorge de Galamus which is a pretty hairy drive when there's oncoming traffic.It's one of those experiences that you're glad to have had but are not overly keen to repeat. We did bypass Bugarach which is one of the few places that is expected to survive when according to the Mayans, the end of the world comes on 21st December. Well, it is an area steeped in myth, legend and the history of the Cathars so Isuppose it's ripe with "new age" types. Arrived at Pierre and Marie's and came back down to earth finding a very warm welcome and as usual, a good meal waiting for us.
