This was another one of the day trips that I had planned that had somehow been placed on the backburner. Indeed, yesterday night I was debating whether or not I should even bother to go, as there were some sights in the city that I hadn't really checked out yet. But I am definitely glad that I said yes, that I got up at 7 am this morning to take the metro to Espanya station and then take the R5 train to Montserrat...
For now, all I have to saw was that the hiking was incredible, exhilarating, a bit treacherous because there was some ice and I was hardly sporting hiking shoes, and was definitely the most exercise I've gotten in a while. If there was a downside to the day, it was that a couple of the trails were really icy and so I could not hike them - one was even closed off to visitors...

The Serrated Mountain is an incredible dedication to Jesus Christ. I love the walk down but was a tad out of breath on my way back up. I hope you had stopped by the store; I did that and bought a few things include yummy chocolate before the train arrived. It was fun and I thanked my friend Sandra for taking me there!
