rafting in the pyranees

[minkyhead]

top hotel  ....  20 meters away is  a rafting centre 
four wheel drive expiriance  ...horse riding 
   not sure  about the horses  me bikes never been stung by a wasp    ......
  any way the hotel is top notch   ...very impressive   ..but  you can book the activities  and they are only 20 meters away   ...two night stop and   do somthing a little different    .....
  set right in the middle of the pyranees   .....

    the rafting  is not a pootle ...... it really gets your attention ........  ???and lasts for two hours   [more than enough  ]  .....34 euros   
i was a little scared when the boat hung up on a rock and tipped 40 degrees for 30 secs or so   
    it was a pretty rough ride    .....exciting though      <dance>
        anyway  a very good place for a night or two  ??
superb hotel in a very  spectacular setting

small world  harve   .....     
while i was there a group of riders turned up  and did the rafting   ...had lunch and  went off again   
it takes around  2 and a half hours     so  you will get the best of both worlds 
   i rode down on a tour through  france    and spain   [10 days  ]  if u have time   give it a go 
...if the man on the boat says    you look strong  ...u sit at the front  ....tell him to sod off   
       if u are in the hotel ribberies    u have  a really  good deal  for 170 quid   
if u are  tied up all the time on the trails ...consider an extra night  to do the water thing  ..then drink beer by the pool and discuss tales of daring do  ....
take some t bags  and hp sauce   
   laugh......i nearly  bought me own beer   ...and passed me fags round   <heid> <yikes>
enjoy  m8  see u at the vuk  /... :cool-yo:
