Les Grand Canalettes

Heading home from Collioure, we checked Saint Cyprian Plage which turned out to be a rather posh place mixed with anchovies and tunas.

After some late-night classical Russian music in Perpignan's spacy concert hall along the river Têt, we spent a lazy Saturday strolling around in the medieval town.

Sunday morning we were again in the 1€-train to Villefranche-de-Conflent but this time to visit the magnificent stalagmites and stalactites in Les Grand Canalettes. A superb experience – and we were almost alone in the vast caves.

At the surface again, we just sat, soaked in the warm October sun, and enjoyed the incredibly fine weather.
