Montserrat, Spain

It’s been a while again! Time for some updates. In April 2024 we had the pleasure to visit my cousin and his family in Spain. We stayed there for a week and explored the area around Barcelona. One thing that we wanted to see, was the Montserrat Monastery. What an incredible and beautiful place to visit. It was pretty calm when we were there. Making our trip even better. Stunning views everywhere. There are several ways to get up the mountain. But we choose to take the little train. Adding to the excitement when slowly crawling up that mountain. What a spectacular day!

This gave us more time to really enjoy and explore the city.

Discovering the Medes Islands by Boat

Last day in L’Estartit. The next day we would be leaving again. We still wanted to do the boat trip. So we gave it another shot. We were happy to see the boat was leaving in the morning and would do a full trip (along the coast and around the Medes Islands). We boarded a big yellow boat called the Nautilus and off we went. The nice things about this boat is that is has a glass-bottom with underwater viewing. This makes it possible to see under water (only took some iPhone shots there) and have a look at the flora and fauna. The whole trip took about 1,5 hours and a strong stomach helps. 🙂
