Walks into town and saying goodbye

We discovered different routes to walk into town.

It's hard not to see the windy road which ever way you go!
Barbary figs (aka prickly pear) are everywhere, their spines very painful but with beautiful flowers 
The railway station has played a huge role in Portbou's history and development

In town this house on the sea front is being renovated...
...and you could always have something to eat at Casa David.
The beach is pebbly but still very popular even mid-week...

...the Mediterranean a pleasant 23ÂșC for bathers.
I enjoyed a beer but left the chiperones (battered baby squid) to my compadres!
It's time to leave and the car is packed...
...with one final view of the town (spot the white house middle left)...
...and minutes later crossing the old frontier into France.

Merci Nicole & Daniel. Next time it's your turn to come to La Tranche.
