We are now on our way back north and so far have stopped off at Valencia, Barcelona and the Dali museum at Figueres.

Valencia.

We were impressed with Valencia and in particular the cycle ways which made it easy for us to get from our campsite some 10 km to the South into the city centre / port area. They were all well designed separating cyclists completely from the traffic.

We particularly liked the science park area which was like some sort of Utopian city as seen in 1960’s Star Trek episodes.

Barcelona

After Valencia we headed directly for Barcelona where we spent 2 days, one day exploring the sights with the aid of a travel card and the second cycling along the beach front area from our campsite on the coast north of Barcelona, a round trip of 45 km.

Work in progress!

Figueres

We went to Figueres as a detour to see the Salvador Dali museum which is said to be the 2^nd busiest museum in Spain. We can confirm this would appear to be the case as the place was rammed, and whilst the museum was good the crowds did detract from the experience. Anyway we have now headed for the hills where we will spend our remaining time in Spain before making our way up through France.
