This may sound like an odd thing to tell you about, but after weeks of being constantly sweaty and clammy, when just the thought of putting on a jumper made me shudder, now it was a significant event. I know we&#8217;ve gone on about how hot it has been lately which has probably got some of you thinking &#8216;stop complaining, back here in Britain it&#8217;s raining\/cold\/windy&#8217;, but these past few weeks have made us realise how much the weather affects our lifestyle. From our time in France last winter when we ventured up to the ski resorts only to find how <a href=\"http:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/zagan-on-ice-minus-ten-at-le-praz-de-lys\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">utterly unprepared we were<\/a> for stopping in the snow, to these past few weeks when all plans (such as they were) have had to go out of the window and pretty much lived on campsites (which is not like us). We&#8217;ve felt unable to do anything, as it was too hot to leave Charlie, even at night. It looks like in future we need to do a bit more planning and research!<\/p>\n<p>With not a firework to be heard we all had a fantastic night&#8217;s sleep up here snuggled under the duvet. The silence was only broken only by the patter of light rain early in the morning which brought with it a wonderful fresh smell.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve decided to stay another day as it is so beautiful here and Charlie has an enormous amount of sleep to catch up on. After a lie in and ahead of his morning nap, he joined us to visit a small stone set of buildings behind the ski life, that were once used for milking sheep and making cheese &#8211; the stone path funnelling in the flock to the milking area. Then Jay and I went back down the road to see a huge metal circle of artwork that we spotted on the drive up &#8211; L&#8217;Anella D&#8217;Orino &#8211; which was built to celebrate 25 years of the Andorran social security fund.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27796\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27796\" class=\"wp-image-27796 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_112638064_HDR-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"L'Anella D'Ordino\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_112638064_HDR-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_112638064_HDR-1024x576-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_112638064_HDR-1024x576-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_112638064_HDR-1024x576-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27796\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">L&#8217;Anella D&#8217;Ordino<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_27794\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27794\" class=\"wp-image-27794 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02749-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"L'Anella D'Ordino\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02749-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02749-1024x512-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02749-1024x512-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27794\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">L&#8217;Anella D&#8217;Ordino<\/p><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-27799\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_104536924_HDR-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Ordino Andorra\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_104536924_HDR-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_104536924_HDR-1024x576-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_104536924_HDR-1024x576-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_20170625_104536924_HDR-1024x576-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The temperature here is 22\u00b0C, a significant change from the heat we&#8217;ve had over the past few weeks.
