Figueres to Cerbere, France

Mileage: 49 miles
Elevation change: 1300 ft
T max: 73 degrees F
Highlights: Today we rode to France for lunch. Our ride today was Spain´s equivalent to California´s Hwy 1 through Big Sur and Monterrey. It was beautiful, hilly and cool. The cliffs of eastern Pyrenees run into the mediteranean here. We had breakfast/coffee by the water in this little town of Port Bou before crossing over to France. The border crossing was pretty unimpressive. Just us and some people from Holland on bikes- no border patrol. Ben brought his passport, but we didn´t even get it stamped. On our way back to Figueres, the skies opened up and we got drenched. Tonight we go to bed early since we have a long haul tomorrow. Nothing fancy for dinner -beer and pizza.
