Visiting Dali in Marbella

Well today was another one of those iffy days, threatening to rain, sun breaking out occasionally and a bit of  a biting wind.  Temperature was a reasonable 16 degrees.  So, we decided not to wander too far from home.  We chose Marbella, it's waterfront and the park nearby.  There is an art installation in the park there that consists of several Salvador Dali bronze statues.    So off we went.
