Dec 11. Perpignan.

We went to Perpignan because we hadn't seen it and it was on the way back to Aix. That is the same reason we plan to go to Montpellier. These pictures are from the Dali Museum, Figueres and Perpignan. 


One more picture together at the Barcelona train station before we parted ways.



A picture of Dali on one the plazas in Perpignan.



Inside the Dali museum. This is no ordinary car, it makes rain inside when a euro is inserted on the a little box.



This is what the car looks inside.



A strange bedroom and furniture but very unique.



A painting on the ceiling



A large acrilic paint at the entrance



Oh, no! What, three Allans. Which one is the real one?



Dali's jewlry expensive creations in gold, silver, gems and cristals.



In 1961 Dali had an idea and he drew it.



Then, he created this piece.



This elephant has been recreated in Marseille's Port in a large scale without the cristal on top.




Outside walls of the museum. We learned that Dali built this museum on the ruins of an old theater that was destroyed during the second worl war.



Outside of the Dali Museum



An empty castle, fort, citadel in Perpignan.



Lord Aragon from the Hobbit movie/book. He is sleeping in the catedral in Perpignan. Or ...



Tall girls in wedding dresses throwing confetti 




Once upon a time this was the entrance of Perpignan. Then it became a prision for many years. Now it is a good place to have a party on Saturday afternoon.
