Missed me?
Mayhap I could try to make some excuse for such long period of silence but frankly, we all already know spanish attitude for being punctual ...so let's say that I am more and more getting used to that.
And when I say mańana I really mean that...
But anywayz to reward you your patience, this letter will be longer and full of nice photos.
Remember earliest letter called "Almost like a release"?

I was so tired I couldn't write anything more about my journey. But today I am fit and ready( and I was running in the morning!).So here we go: 
Starting from the beginning.
There were 14 of us wanting to go for a trip. People from Belgium, Poland, France, Slovakia, Slovenia, Germany...truly Erasmus company.So we've arrived at train station.
Our brave drivers went to airport to take the cars we had booked some days earlier. And then first problems occured. It happened that we can take only two cars instead of three...so only 10 poeple could go( I proposed to put someone to trunk, but suprisingly noone volounteered).
So then there was intesified discussion who should go and why. Whole situation got even more funny becouse of one of the drivers( he might read this so I won't mention who it was...) He was so confused that he bumped the second car while was parking at the airport. You should see the faces of people who were supposed to ride with him...
By the way - I proposed to be the driver as well, but I also didn't forget to mention that I've passed my driving licence for the sixth time and that during one of the exams I've hit the bus...so again suprisingly noone was eager to my proposal.
After few minutes of discussion we came to fair agreement. And so four people who've booked car late( or already have been to place where we were supposed to go) resigned.
So from 14 people at the beginning only 10 went on the journey ...and maybe I watched to many horror movies but I was curious how many will come back... 
Anywayz, we headed north east.
To Cadadaques - home of Dali --->
In two cars.
Company in my car had one main advantage and one main disadvantage.
Advantage was - that our driver - David was experienced and realy good.
Disadvantage was that all people apart from me were from Belgium...now I have nothing against Belgium,but were there are so many people from one nationality sooner all later they will forget about your presence and start speaking their mother tongue.
And that's what happened.
So I had fantastic opportunity to learn some flemmish, ...naturlik.
Anywayz,we didn't know the exact way, so not going into detalis, we got lost several times and separated from the other car's team.
Our first stop was La Figueres.
City not that much beatifull itself but having one of the most interesting museums in the region.
The Theater Museum of Salvador Dali. Place full of surrealistic artifacts and unique art, most famous heritage of this world known Catalan genius. A must-see point for all tourists.
But, we didn't go there anyway...
So after short walk, we were back on the road.
Heading to Cadaquez passing National Parc of Cap de Creus.Now that was wonderfull!Landscapes were breathtaking and there was no other option - we had to stop again.
We took a long walk through mountain paths, crossing ruins and olive gardens, shooting as many photos as possible.Here are just few of them:
See that white settlement on the right-bottom photo?
That's Cadaques, home town of Salvador Dali - main point of our journey.
Just as we arrived we met with team from the other car. Together we took a short walk along the cost, well to be more honest for some of us i t wasn't short at all, becouse we were ... starving.

And so we stopped for some pasta ( it was the only dish there suitable for student pocket) and a coffe( spanish cofee is the best in the world!).

Although it was getting late, we were still eager to discover Catalonia.And so we drove south - to beatiful city called Roses.


And that was it. Great final of great journey!

Then we walked to main point of Cadaques - Port Lligat. It was a small bay were Salvador Dali used to live. There, just at the coast stands his house were he was creating all his weird and brilliant art.
Nowadays it's main tourist attraction.
But it was closed.
Anywyaz, the view from this bay and the exterior of the house were worth seeing. Check it yourself:

Roses is located at the coast and has many interesting tourist attractions like the citadel below.
But guess what?
It was closed.
So, we went to tourism office to ask about something which is opened. We got nice tourist map..and there it was!

Megalitic complex...catalan stonehedge!
It was located at the outskirts of city, up the hills.
Climbing upn there was tiring indeed..but worth the effort. We were just about to see the sunset.
And that was it. Great final of great journey!
Of course it was not the end of the adventure. On sunday, we headed for another trip. But that's completely different story...maybe for mańana?
!Adeu!
