Roses…El Dolmen de la Creu
Today Wednesday the weather had taken a distinct turn for the better and we set off on our bikes again, heading out of Roses towards El Dolmen de la Creu…this is a neolithic structure; one of many scattered over Spain…

Nice….Apollo has Returned…Girls Avert your Eyes
Today we hit Nice. The Place de Massena is a must see, looked over from one side by Apollo on the Fontaine de Soleil. His statue was removed fairly recently in case it caused ‘moral disruption’ but was daringly reinstated…
