Cycling Dali's Landscapes in Spain - Day 10
Upon returning to the hotel we all turned in our bicycles for the last time and prepared for our farewell dinner.
Our final morning of biking began after a beautiful sunrise and a great hotel breakfast followed by a quick shuttle to the nearby docks of L'Escala to enjoy coastal cruise to Port de L'Estartit.
An Ocean Sunrise At Breakfast
Along the way we saw the rugged coast, an arch, fed the gulls and watched lots of scuba activity in the marine sanctuary.

Upon arrival at Port de L'Estartit we
found our bicycles lined up for us to begin our final 17 miles of
cycling. Along the way we had numerous views of the mountaintop Montgri
Castle.
Biking Through Cornfields and Apple Orchards
The Greek Ruins at Empuries
As we concluded out final ride we passed the ancient Empuries Greek and Roman ruins next to our hotel.
Returning To Our Hotel
Upon returning to the hotel we all turned in our bicycles for the last time and prepared for our farewell dinner.
The dinner began with the sampling of a variety of excellent local (Emporda) wines and then went on to a three course dinner (including a glorious poached pear desert) that would make any foodie happy. After saying our goodbyes and trading of contact information, it was time to pack our bags and get a good nights sleep before a morning return trip to Barcelona.
