Spousetivities at VMworld Barcelona 2018

Departing the conference center promptly at 8:30 AM, we'll head out of the city and begin by driving to the town of Figueres, which is about 1.5 hours north of Barcelona and is the birthplace of the late Surrealist painter, Salvador Dalí. The most famous landmark in this town is the museum that Dalí created in the 1970's where a huge collection of his works is housed and displayed. Once we arrive, you can take a few minutes to walk around and take photos of the building's facade. After spending 1.5 to 2 hours in the museum on your own (unguided) and exploring a bit of the old quarter surrounding the museum, we'll head to the town of Girona, which is an incredibly well-preserved medieval town of about 95,000 people, boasting a stunningly beautiful old quarter and Jewish Call. Girona is full of tiny, winding cobblestone streets, pedestrian bridges, colorful houses and buildings lining the Onyar River, great shops, charming cafes and restaurants, an incredible Cathedral, Arab Baths and much more. We'll take a stroll along the top of the ancient Roman wall that still surrounds part of the town, as well as wander through the peaceful gardens inside the towers at either end. After a great lunch at one of our favorite restaurants, followed by the tour and visit through the old quarter, you may have a bit of time to have a drink in one of the local cafes before heading back to Barcelona. Tour will return at approx 7PM.
