They had a very small Carnival celebration here in Collioure in the afternoon. I came upon the end of it, so perhaps the children had paraded about in their costumes first.... In any case, it was fun to see them in the lovely sunshine with adoring parents and grandparents watching the festivities fondly.

Taking advantage of the one euro bus ticket, I went to Elne. The Tourist Information brochure reads "27 centuries of History, Art and Humanity in Catalonia".
