So with all the prep finally completed well i hoped anyway it was time to make the big trip something i had dreamed of for the last 8 years
 Click image to enlarge So we boarded the ferry in Portsmouth and spent the next day and a half sailing to Santander ready for our Pyrenees adventure Once we arrived we headed to the desert on route to the Mediterranean coast to start our traverse Click image to enlarge Day 2 found a beautiful track with a stunning view at the top Click image to enlarge Crossing the border between Spain and France Click image to enlarge Enjoying one of the many switchback mountain tracks Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge One night the awning got a bit damp so ended up drying it out at 2200m during a lunch stop before heading into Andorra Click image to enlarge Leaving Andorra via the infamous smugglers route Click image to enlarge A bit of an eerie track along side a disused Ski slope that hasn't been used since 1987 with chair lifts still intact! Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Aneto the tallest peak in the Pyrenees behind the 110 Click image to enlarge Few days and some bad weather later we headed towards the middle to enjoy some nicer weather while i found the doer upper property Click image to enlarge Enjoying watching the Vultures Click image to enlarge Even bumped into Jimmy Deville off the telly Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Made some friends with a lovely Swiss couple and there Toyota 4 runner which was cool Click image to enlarge Then just like that 16 days out in Spain it was all over Click image to enlarge Covered 2036 miles while out in Spain absolutely loved it only thing that went wrong was one of my LED indicators died which im not that fussed at! 110 Td5 Ex Utilities slowly converting into a pop top camper one day Build thread:https://www.defender2.net/forum/post1024784.html#1024784 |
