And overnight at a place that I have wanted to visit for some time.
This trip , like most of mine was planned using one of Stefan Bogners "Curves" books- Curves Pyrenees- featuring "Le Toison D'Or at Cette Eygun - just North of Somport Tunnel - very quirky Arthurian themed hotel perched on side of the valley

Left France this morning 3 1/2 hours of mostly motorway down to Bilbao.
Treated myself to a fabulous Japanese lunch in a super Michelin Bib restaurant in a modern suburb called Getzo
