Andorra

I am sitting in a hotel room in Andorra, a principality between France and Spain, high in the Pyrenees mountains. It is a banking and shopping haven and in the winter a skiing paradise. It is very small so there are only two McDonalds in town. We drove around for over an hour looking for our hotel and after asking about 50 people we finally stumbled upon it by accident. You may wonder why we are here. Well, we got off the ship and rented a car and decided to get out of Barcelona because there are too many tourists there. We saw five ships pull into port this morning. So we selected Andorra because we didn't think there were any tourits here and I think I am right. It's very remote and they speak Catalan so we can't even understand them. The mountains are all around the town and the scenery is beautiful. But since it is in the mountains it is very cold and I am freezing. We will look at the sites in the morning and head back to Barcelona in the afternoon because we can't possibly drive those winding mountain roads at night.
