Day three in Figueres was the entire reason I planned this part of the trip to Northern Spain. The Dalí Theatre-Museum isn’t just a museum with paintings hung on the wall, it’s something you can only experience in 3D. Dalí designed it himself, and people come from all over the world to see it. He lived the end of his life at the museum and he is buried here.  So who is Dali and why do people care? Well, he was a very eclectic person who had a very interesting love life which is intertwined with his works of art. Even if you don’t follow art history, you’ve likely seen his surreal work, especially the paintings of melting clocks, and other mind-bending dreamlike scenes.   We spent most of the day wandering through the exhibits, taking it all in slowly. Some pieces feel like illusions until you’re standing right in front of them. It’s immersive in a way that’s hard to explain unless you see it in real life. By the time we left, we had fully worked up an appetite and headed back toward the popular restaurant square in Figueres for a long, leisurely Italian lunch at 50 Voltes. It ended up being one of those meals that lingers and replaces the rest of your day—simple, generous, and exactly what you want after hours of exploring. Back to the hotel, packed up, and rested—ready to continue the road trip the next morning. See you tomorrow for Day 4.
