Hello From Balaguer

Try & find that on the map.It is about 140kms south of Andorra in Nth East Spain. Tonight we are camped beside a lake in the mountain area. It never ceases to amaze where people live here & the fact that every prominent rock outcrop on the ridges has a castle or fortress built on it. Presume that the purpose was to see invaders coming from all directions. The weather is a hot 33 deg at the moment with low humidity. We had stopped to have a look at our maps when 2 police stopped to have a chat. They gave us good advice for the most scenic route & could not believe we were from NZ. They did not even check our licence or carnets but were pulling cars in for a check.
Not sure how I am going to convert back to the left hand side of the road when we go back to the UK. All going good, Northern Italy here we come !
