Striding through Catalonia part 3b.

But it wasn't the end of adventures for the day.
Just after descending from Mont Gris we drove to Albert's
place. There I had a pleasue to meet his family and participate in famous
Catalan Calcotada!
Calcotada is kind of barbecue or fiesta where apart from meat you consume ... calcots.
What's that, you may ask?
It is kind of onion...or something. First your fry it on a strong fire,
than dip it in a special sauce and afterwards devour like you've been
starving for weeks.
Just check the photos:




On our way back to Girona we stopped at Peratallada - one of the countless
charming villages in the region ( Catalonia seems to be filled with old
churches, castles and medieval towns), which was especially famous for it's
unchanged medieval architecture.


At the end we enjoyed fine spanish cofee.
Tasty final for a tasty journey.
Hasta luego!
