So today was a little exciting excursion to the cities of Girona and Figueres, north of Barcelona. Girona is absolutely beautiful--there are some beautiful old fortifications and other old buildings (old buildings in Europe, what?!?) and it was nice to get out of Barcelona. While Girona is a popular tourist destination, it seemed a bit quieter than Barca.
An awesome park. With awesome trees.
Pétanque!
The only time we spent in Figueres was to see the Salvador Dali museum. It was interesting, none of the works by which I know him were displayed. I think a lot of those are elsewhere in the world (I know I've seen a few in the Art Institute of Chicago).
