Reus, Spain

yesterday we passed through some awesome landscapes and around montpellier we hit „summer“ ☀️, so i threw away my shoes and pulled out my flip flops and my dress 👗 - shortly after that we reached the mediterranean sea. it was a great feeling driving barefoot overlooking the snow-capped peaks of the pyrenees, not to mention to pass through them near the coast - did i already tell you, that i love driving country roads - ❤️ serpentines ❤️❤️❤️.
the funny thing was, that right after we passed the spanish border, it started to stink - smoke all over. i have to research this, but it looks like everybody is burning 🔥 their garden waist between xmas and new year - literally *everybody* and the valleys were filled with smoke. i did not mind the wonderful clouds filling the valleys (luckily i didn't have to go to), not to mention the wonderful orange sunset 🌅, painting a beautiful silhouette on the dark orange sky for over an hour… BUT for over 3 hours spain stank… 🤮.

in the evening we found a very calm place to stay over night. on the way there the cooler water started to boil and we recognized that both 50 amp fuses of the radiator fan broke down. the ones in the engine compartment… i did not even know that there are 50 amp fuses there… and they look very archaic.
we bridged them with wire, checked the engine and after that…
…grilled our merguez and enjoyed some red wine and gin tonic. aaaaaand this morning the sun ☀️ woke us up ❤️❤️❤️.

so now we‘re driving next to orange 🍊 plantations and we already have 3 kilos in our trunk - i’m happy that we bought a juicer 🧃on the way. before sunset 🌅 we will arrive at our apartment and we also have some shrimps 🦐 in the trunk - ready for our new years eve dinner…En savoir plus
