We will Dilly DALI on the way! - Spain and Portugal 2014
In 2009, when we had the tent, we visited the Salvador Dali museum and art gallery at Figueras, in Spain. We bought a print of a painting done in 1924, titled Port Alguer. We have been looking at this painting for 15 years. Apparently it is set in Cadaques, so this year we are going to Spain to find the spot where Dali painted it! We are now in the last week of preparations for our trip. We plan to wander down through France and then on to Spain and Portugal. We hope you will follow us through the blog. If you click on a photo it will come up in a larger slide show format, with further info and room for comments.
