Today through my expert navigating skills, Rachel and I went to Montserrat, a mountain with a monastery about an hour by train out of Barcelona. We really had no idea what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised. We had to take a cable car up, which was made by the krauts in the 1930’s so I wasn’t too worried about it breaking.

We got to the top, and just started to explore. We found a trail head and decided to take a hike, turned about to be about 2 hours in total, but we got to a nice vista and enjoyed our croissant ham and cheese sandwiches that we purchased earlier from our local shop in the barrio.

After surviving our hike, we enjoyed a nice cold beer while doing some good people watching, our favorites were some German high school kids by far. There were also some locals selling a variety of cheeses, honey, and other trinkets if you are interested in that sort of stuff. Highly recommend going if you have the chance, I know i’ll be back!
