From the Pyrenees we drove south to central Spain. Unfortunately I had a little accident in the Pyrenees a few days earlier so I was kinda immobile. With a dislocated ankle I was bound to stay near the car for a few days... Luckily in the Albarracin region even close to the car you can see lots of nice butterflies and I was already in the region in august 2012 so I didn't miss too much.
my swollen right ankle 2 days after my fall in the Pyrenees...
First day in the Albarracin region we spent in Moscardon at a height of approximately 1400-1500m.

Lovely to see the butterflies of Central Spain. It is an area I have always wanted to visit. I hope your ankle gets better soon.
