The Pyrenees Orientales was on alert rouge here for a couple of days this week. When it rains, it pours here in the Deep South!
We're on the med here, practically a lake for all intents and purposes and we rarely see waves. The surfers drop everything once they see a ripple in the water and dash headfirst into the big pond.
So when we get waves like this in Collioure .. it's making hay time!

| Collioure - surfin dude |

| Things we rarely see in Perpignan! |
 |
| Our road is blocked. One poor soul got washed away in the deluge during the week |

| In Canet, all kinds of sealife were hurtled onto the sand by the crashing waves. This seagull got lucky with a sea snake |

| Le lendemain. Blue skies are restored. Snow is forecast for Tuesday though! The world has gone mad! |
