Today we drove from Girona to Carcassone in France. This is an old walled city, which was once a huge fort dating back to the VI century. It wasonce owned by a single family, but was taken over by one of the kings of France. This is a major tourist attraction, and so has been restored. Driving around in this area there are many ruins on top of hills that were obviously fortified positions and which have not been restored in any way.
After seeing Carcassone we decided to go back into Spain, to Port de la Selva to spend the night. This is a place where I had camped out a few weeks ago. Tomorrow we'll see Cadaques and then meet up with Monica in Besalu.
