Instead we decided to head for a free parking place with stunning views on the other side of the country (which was only about half an hour away). Managing to avoid the capital this time, we were faced with race track style driving and roads to match as lanes appeared from all sides, above and below and were lined with low red metal bars in front of the crash barriers as if to save the barriers from being crashed into &#8211; which felt like it might be a frequent event.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27816\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27816\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27816\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02756-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02756-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02756-1024x512-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02756-1024x512-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27816\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Thumbs up if you stick to the speed limit in Andorra<\/p><\/div>\n<p>We made our way up through several small towns all of which were geared up for skiing and selling cheap alcohol and cigarettes.

Several hill-climbing squiggle roads later we reached the free parking area to find it was very exposed. As we didn&#8217;t fancy another rocking night, Andorra has gone onto the &#8216;next time&#8217; list. Feeling a little like Goldilocks (the weather is too hot or it is raining too much) our next time list is ever growing, but as we&#8217;ve missed quite a few things in Spain due to the heat, a trip back through Andorra won&#8217;t be too hard to plan.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27812\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27812\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27812\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02771-1024x529.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02771-1024x529.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02771-1024x529-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC02771-1024x529-768x397.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27812\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The stunning views were hidden by rain filled clouds<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Topping up on diesel (\u20ac0.88 &#8211; 78p a litre!) we drove out through the ski resort of Pas de la Casa, its road lined with French motorhomes making me think the Tour de France was due any minute.
