Hi,

Thanks for stopping by to watch the video.

This was day 2 and 3 of my trip to Val d'Aran, namely a place called Les, which sits right on the Spanish / French border of the Pyrenees. We had hiked to Lc Redon the day before and because the weather forecast wasn't too great for the next couple of days (although it turned out ti be not too bad) we decided to visit some old zinc mines, about 40 minutes away and then the next day, we stayed even more local and just wandered up to the old church that was recently restored. it was a nice opportunity to take the drone out for a fly and justr elax for a couple of days, because the next day, we were to be climbing some steep hills again, high in the Pyrenees with panoramic views for hundreds of miles. That will be the next video but until then, enjoy this one.
