Day Two of our Trip through Spain, Rowan and I visited Figueres where Salvador Dali was born, and later constructed a massive museum devoted to himself. Ego-maniac you say?
I say artistic genius....

First we saw the park in the city and I loved the trees.
The museum, comprised of two parts: The Art Museum and the Jewel collection. Both well worth the ticket price. He really was mad and creative and all those good things.

Here are some of the paintings and sights that we beheld. As Dali said ¨Jewels are to be admired, not stowed away in some private collection¨(That was a complete misquote but he said something like that...) Enjoy friends 😊
