Museums out of Barcelona
To do something different on Friday you could go to Figueres to see Dali museum. Dalí has been one of the most extravagant and important painters in Spain, he was a surrealist, and his paintings are very strange. You will like the museum. He has got other museums, one in Pubol, and you can also visit his house in Port LLigat, next to Cadaques. You will love this towns in the Creus Cape.
