Dali Museum in Figueres
On Thursday we went to the Dali Museum having had breakfast early despite the late return from the football. The coach journey was an hour and a half with a stop in Girona on the way back. The museum was fascinating and it is easy to see why Dali was considered mad by many people. He used Mae West's lips as the model for the first picture but quite why he liked tacks falling from the sky in so many pictures I couldn't say.
The third picture is of what is alleged to have been Al Capone's cadillac and signifies something but I'm not sure what. There is a fishing boat above it connected by a totem pole made of tyres.
We stopped at a cafe for some shopping and found the campest man in Spain. The final photo is of a group of Year 10 students crossing the bridge back to the coach and posing.
