Wednesday, Apr. 26, 2017--Andorra del Vella
One of the really nice things about this place is its public art. I noticed Botero sculpture in the middle of a traffic circle as we entered the city yesterday. Then I noticed another piece of art in another traffic circle. For the past two days, I have been seeing more public art--at intersections and in courtyards. The works are all by major artists.
Andorra must be a paradise for alcoholics. (Or hell!) With their low taxes, the liquor prices are unbelievably low. I had noticed all the stores yesterday, but today I paid attention to the prices: A liter of J&B Scotch for 8.90 Euros. A liter of 51 Cachaca from Brizil for 6.90 Euros. A liter of Tanqueray Gin for 10.90 Euros or Bombay Sapphire Gin for 11.90 Euros. I bought a liter bottle of Jacare Cachaca for 4.95!!
There have been light showers off and on today. When the sun come out for about 2 hours this afternoon, I decided to go back out. But it started raining again with snow mixed into it. Our forecast for tonight and tomorrow is for snow. I imagine it will be light snow showers, since the rain has been light. Hope it won't create a problem for me going to the bus station tomorrow, since I have to leave for Barcelona.
