Thermal cures....

We visited this old hotel for a beer and a Ricard. It was hidden in a dell, amongst the vast mountains in the Pyrenees. This view helped us to see the thermal waters, which according to the info provided by the hotel helps to cure various illnesses....look at the handles on around the edges of the river....the water is so dirty I would think it's more likely to initiate an illness rather than cure one! Bah. Anyway, we learned two other things. The guests are called patients and the drinks are expensive...so we'll not be checking in. We found our destination and had to make a hasty retreat...looked dire. We are in our way to the 2nd option in Ceret. Fingers crossed!
