Wen you do get a chance, not a bad view. Plenty of vineyards with old small stone shacks, quaint. Heading to Perpignan so we can drop the car off and catch the train to ...
A Day of Dalí
... provided more insight into the relationship dynamics that existed between Dalí and his lovely muse Gala.
I have always been intrigued by Dalí as he seemed to be a larger than life personality – crazy, bizarre, and full of confidence. It seems that people gravitate towards those individuals who stand out – perhaps it’s something we are missing in our own lives. Coming to this area of the world where Dalí grew up and ...
