Description

Barcelona - Montserrat is a spectacularly beautiful Benedictine monk mountain retreat about one hour North West from Barcelona by train. Wonderful views, cool mountain air, easy walks and trails for the fitter tourist - cheaper to take your own lunch !!. yummy icecreams for those with a sweet tooth.

It's quite funny that one tourist is interested in taking the shot and the other one just wants to make use of the seat and chat on her phone.
If that is where I think it is the mountains in the background had snow on them when we were there in January.
Just a wee tut tut that you clipped the top of the statue head off!! #1352285

Hi Kate - I agree about the tut tut - thanks actually I think last month I entered a very similar image to this one "The Tourist" without the clipped head. The adorable young lady with the camera is actually Anna and yes it is a view of Montserrat. You inspired me with your images of Barcelona and I started going through mine again. Could not help myself !!! #9230441

Wonderful interaction! The tourists seem more enamored of their electronics than the wonderful sculptures and architecture around them, don't they! #9233243
