Collioure

Went to Southern France last week, holiday and looking at property. Arrived in Gerona, Spain on Friday morning and we picked up a hire car and drove to Collioure. Collioure is a picture postcard fishing village. However it wasnt perfect. Firstly although not completly dead, very few places were open and the local Pub only opens at week ends . There were a few Cafes and Restaurants and on the first day we eat al fresco and I included a pic here. We had booked an Apartment and it was adequate but the car parking was a nightmare ven for my brother. No wonder all the local cars had bumps or were very small vehicles. Apart from looking at property we went to Spain to see the Dali Museum and some shopping. Back to Collioure we had a meal in the Dali Restaurant. Most of the main courses were Duck so we all had Chicken. Don't think our Chef was impressed. I thought of the Basil Fawlty episode and the 'Duck Suprise' Salvadore himself didn't show up, must have seen the ad saying 'no riff raff invited''
