On our way to meet the family in Hecho, we stopped at Huesca, a place we like to stop to take a coffee...
In memory of Orwell: Tomorrow we’ll have coffee in Huesca’ had become a standing joke throughout the army. If I ever go back to Spain I shall make a point of having a cup of coffee in Huesca.
Meeting her uncle Lionel.
The other side. France is at the end.
