    Altough the clouds were hanging low, we had a wonderful trip with Arantxa. We were the only english speaking couple so we had a sort of private trip. The weather conditions were bad so we couldn't see much of the lakes and the surrounding mountains. But Arantxa explained a lot about the shepherds and the animals and how they changed the environment over time . Everything was very interesting. On our way back it cleared up a bit and then a couple of griffon vultures showed up, this was so exiting
