Nilsen, I use a tiny Canon IXUS 700, and I'm extremely happy with it.
Couple pics I took at the olympic port, in my home city, Barcelona
As for Patricia, her aerobatic nickname is "Cheveux rouges", and that comes from the color of her plane, a beautiful CAP-232 which, unfortunately, is grounded until further notice since last year's accident (a 232 suffered structural catastrophic damage during a contest).
The weather in the pyrenees depends on the side you are talking about. North (Perpignan) you are going to find some cloudy days mid/end march, but the temperature will be much better than it is now (averaging 0-5 degrees celsius most of the day, with the nights going 8 below).
