Porquerolles
Nous avons profité des derniers jours de l'été pour faire une petite croisière d'un week-end en bateau à Porquerolles. On a eu beaucoup de soleil et peu de vent, mais on a surtout bien profité de la mer ! Antoine a adoré diriger le bateau : un futur marin ? Argh !
Our last week-end of the summer was dedicated to the sea with a little trip to Porquerolles with a rented boat. Antoine enjoyed it so much that I think he might want to be a sailor one day! Argh!

A short trip to Spain... Un petit tour en Espagne
Some pictures and comments after our trip to Pays Basque and Spain, a beautiful Region only 5 hours away from Montpellier... The Bernard's Baedeker - Part One
Quelques impressions de voyage (court mais intense...) au Pays basque... à cinq heures de montpellier.
The famous Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao and the "Mommy" spider of Louise Bourgeois honestly the only thing to see there, but really impressive, even for those who prefer straight angles... Also the cheapest Tapas ever found on the planet : 7 euros for the two of us, in a local pub, excellent and really good, but I could hardly tell you where it was...
Le Guggenheim, vraiment la seule chose à voir à Bilbao, mais ça vaut le coup, même pour un inconditionnel de l'angle droit !
Autre chose quand même : les Tapas les moins chers de toute l'histoire de l'humanité (7 euros à deux, dans un boui boui perdu mais super sympa... pas contre j'aurais bien du mal à retrouver...)
And then, monasteries, medieval cities, bridges, old stones in Aragon and of course more Tapas and good food...
Et pour le reste : monastères, cités médiévales, vieilles pierres et Tapas à tous les étages :
The castle and church of Javier : birth place of Saint Francois Xavier, in the middle of nowhere, although close to Pampelune. Xavier went to Japan in the 16th century to evangelise the natives. Lucky he did not end up as sukiyaki...La ville de Javier, pres de Pampelune, en pleine cambrousse. C'est de la que Saint Francois est parti évangéliser les Nippons... il a eu de la chance de ne pas finir en sushi...
The monastery of San Salvador de Leyre, there is a very nice hotel there, too bad we did not know that before....
Le monastere de Saint Salvador de Leyre, avec un super hotel mais on ne le savait pas.. dommage car nous sommes alles à 4 km de la dans un hotel banal...
Ochagavia, a beautiful town in the north of Aragon, near the border, a very good restaurant there, but beware of Spanish timetables : they open at 13h30, better take a good breakfast.
Ochagavia, un petit bijou au nord de l'Aragon, super restaurant, mais horaires à la Basque/Espagnole: rien d'ouvert avant 13h30, tant pis pour ceux qui ne prennent pas de petit déj...
A street in SOS DEL REY CATOLICO, a really beautiful place, there was a medieval fair going on , lots of activity, concerts and so on. If you go there, try the Parador, the local 4* hotel, very good and not so expensive..
Une rue du village de SOS del REY CATOLICO, genre "plus beaux villages d'espagne". Si vous être perdus dans ce coin, essayez le Parador, très bon rapport qualité prix...
Le monastere de Sa Juan de la Pena, un mix d'architectures du 12 eme (bati sous une falaise) du 18 et du 21eme. Un musee et un hotel, tres belle integration, les architectes espagnols sont vraiment doues...
