Back in Barcelona.

(A1) Pyranees - La Molina

After a nice ride down the coast, I am back in Barceloneta. It was about a 75 km ride today and I'm pretty tired. Mostly flat so I can't complain. So far this trip has been an eye opening experience to let life flow and let go and then find the beauty in what may come. After many mishaps in Barcelona and leaving days later then expected to find the Pleasant Revolution, Paul and I made it to Boug-Madame, Spain by bus and then road up into France to meet our friends along the road. We met them off the N20 HWY and it was a moment that will forever be present in my mind, until my memory leaves me that is. That night we found the most beautiful spot next to the river and meadow to set up and make a fire and play music together and eat good food with our friends we haven't scene in over 4 months since they originally left on the Bike Tour of Europe. Although the trip was not all bubbles and kisses, for the most part, I was amazed at the camaraderie and community that could make such a trip so 'pleasant'. We luckily joined the tour in a time when the first days were relaxed and at our own pace, although it was up the side of the Pyrenees mountain range (See: A1). We climbed up and down the mountains for the entire day and into the night, changing in elevation of thousands of meters. Some climbs would last 3 hours and seemed like forever.

Honestly - it is getting real late here in Barcelona and I have to collect my thoughts on how I'm going to present the entirety of the trip. There are so many things that are left our and cannot be described through words or pictures. Think of a dream of fire flies dancing through the night, laughing drunk, looking for camping, and finding a stream next to trees, a meadow, mountains, and good company - cooking- food - This is the dream of the Pleasant Revolution. I am sure that in some form my being here for this short 3 weeks is a manifestation of true intent and desire to find the movers and shakers of the world and the ethereal. =--- Like I said, I have to collect my thoughts. Here is an overhead shot of where I am typing from in Barceloneta, Spain. Right back where Paul and I started our journey from.

I'd really like to end this post with a video recap from the beginning of the trip leading up to the Pyranees, but it is still uploading. Next time. Much love from Spain to you! - What is your intent in life and how are you going to create all the beauty in your world. Take time with your thoughts...
