Tonight’s Tapas

Tuesday, September 28, 2010

Above is a picture of tonights tapas at the place we are staying in the Costa Brava.  We found out that the restaurant at our place is closed so no snacks or tapas tonight.  After getting the car, we left Barcelona and headed to Figurers where the Dali museum is located.  After touring the museum (that man was a freak!  Not sure how much Charlotte would have liked his museum.), we headed for our hotel.  Because we knew the restaurant was closed and there wasn’t really any good place to eat in Figurers, we thought we would try and find a store to get some pan (bread) & olive oil.  We searched Figurers and didn’t find anything so we thought we would just get on the road.  As we got closer we got more lost, the Garmin Randy & Charlotte loaded us works well until the small towns then the streets are so close together the Garmin and we get confused.  It worked in the end and we would have been really lost without it!

So we checked into our room and the woman who checked us in booked us a reservation for 8:30 tonight.  It was 4:00 pm and we were starving and tired of driving.  But we jumped back in the car to go to Begur (we are calling the town bugger) and get some tapas.  When we got there, we saw a small shop and thought this was a way better idea so we stumbled through the language, got some great olive oil, bread, manchego, chorizo, and Serrano jamon that we are eating with a wine we purchased yesterday.   

Tomorrow is our driving day to Basque country.
