I enjoyed very much this excursion in the Pyrénées-Orientales: beautiful landscapes and nice encounters.
There are some interesting aspectsof the region: Port-Vendres ( the cruisers coming from America, the American,Candian and Australian tourists visiting for a day this town, the painter Marc Doury, the "oenotourisme"-the wine maker Benoït Briu, the diversity of grapes varieties-the tasting of Grenachewine,the photographer Saïd Aouad and the old pictures of the port), the Saint-Vincent celebration at Collioure ( the sardana and the humanpyramide, the church of Notre-Dame des Anges, the procession with the relics of Saint-Vicent,the comic boat race in the bay of Collioure), the waters of the region (the promotion of the thermal resorts by Eugénie de Montijo, the resort ofVernet-les-Bains, the gold digging in the rivers), the sports in the mountains ( Stéphane Roucal and the canyoning-the abseiling of a waterfall-, the discovery of a cave with the speleologist Jean-François Vermotte, the parc animalier -Jean-Pierre and Françoise observing the wolves from their cabin-), Argelès-sur-Mer ( the 55 camping sites, Manuel Bey and the camping site of Les Galets,the mobile homes and also tents, the family ambiance), and the border betwen France and Spain (the train station of Cerbère-the standard gauge track and the Iberian gauge track, the Spanish enclave of Llívia, -Albert and Mélia and the restaurant "Ambassade de Llívia, the bilingual education-French and Catalan languages).
I enjoyed the encounters of Raphaël de Casabianca with Manée Pous (the Hôtel des Templiers), with Jean-Claude Ducatte (Fort Saint-Elme) , with Florent and Guy Roque, with the fishmonger Nicolas Badie, with the chef Masashi Ijima, with the diver and rugby player Alan Brazo, with the ceramist Claire Baudy, with the journalist Cyrille Maniere, with the mountain biker Florian Pouches, with the shipwright Jérémy Thiele, with the boat restorer Mrtinn Luc Bonnardot, with Benjamin (Tour de Batère) and with the "accompagnatrice en montagne" Estelle Catala and the mountain climber Thomas Dulac at the Mount Canigou; nice encounters with very kind French men and women.
