this blog isn't very interesting

I can't remember when I last updated. Oh yes, in the Spanish campsite. Just after writing, we saw a giant toad by the toilet block, he was about as big as 2 week old baby rabbit or a doughnut, but not as cute as a baby rabbit or as fattening as a doughnut (I'm guessing there, I don't know the calorific content of a toad and also the fat content of doughnuts varies massively with brand, but if you average it out, I think the toad would be less). Anyway, the next day we drove back into andorra to get some petrol and supplies from the supermarket (supermercat in catalan, which I like coz it sounds like super-meerkat). We went in at 20 past 12. We spent what felt like 40 mins, maybe an hour, when we came out t was 20 to 3. Woops. It was ok, I find supermeerkats quite exciting. Then we drove through the mountains some more until we got tired and jen said “ok, start looking out for campsites now” and then 2 seconds later we saw a sign and followed it to a lovely campsite with a dog called Tura as its mascot, which pleased me so we set up camp. We went for a walk away from the lights of the campsite when it got dark and saw a bajillion stars. It was pretty:) Oh and we found a washing machine to do some laundry, hurrah! In the morning we made toast, marmite and fried egg. The marmite we found in the super meerkat in andorra and is making my mornings just a little bit better everyday:) Then we drove up the hill and went for a mountainous walk where I saw lots of bees, some flowers, some mushrooms, strawberries and lots and lots of mountains. It was only about one and a half hours coz I still wasn't feeling 100% and it was very hot. Then we drove to a campsite in France near Amelie-les-bains. To get there involves a 20 minute up a mountain pass that barely fits a single car on and has a sheer drop of billions and billions of feet at the side of it. It was an adventure, and by that I mean I thought I might die, but we listened to The Format the whole way up which helped. The campsite (las fargassa) is ba self sufficient fruit farm, buried amongst the mountain trees, miles from anything else. It's really beautiful and to top it all off, I met some new animals! There are two cats, called Toby and Puss something (apparently it means cat-animal in Dutch, but I forgot the second part of the name). Toby kept hitting jen on the arm while we cooked dinner, I was amused and charmed, jen was less so. There are two border collies named mirra and gita and three of gita's puppies named bear , tumook and something beginning with an F that ive forgotten. Bear is a 4 month old lab/retriever x collies. He is black with a white splosh on his chest. He is wonderful. Quaruntine laws have changed. He only needs a few jabs to come to England. He is free to a good home. Interesting...

We decided to stay two nights here. The first night we had torrential rain and really loud thunderstorms, it was very exciting in our little tent, flashy flashy bang bang! The next day(today) we drove into colliure nand went snorkelling at the beach. It was awesome, only a few metres in and we saw loads of fishies and corals, we even saw an octopus who blinked at me. I liked him, i'll call him Simon. Whilst we were wondering round the streets, in shorts and strap tops and flip flops, the torrential rain started up again which was fun. We hid in a little cafe with wi-fi. Then we drove back u the scary mountain road and made some tasteless pasta for dinner. Then I was sick:( Now I feel ok and there are lots and lots of stars out. This is the most boring blog ever. Mum, can I bring a puppy home pls?
