Today I went on a train to Montserrat, which is about 1 hour outside of Barcelona. It was amazing! I would have liked to go on a clear day because apparently from Montserrat you can sometimes see the Pyrenees and Mallorca. But, today was verrrry foggy. It was really awesome that we went on a Sunday because we were able to see the last part of mass, and the famous boys choir performed at the end of it. It looked like there were about 20 young boys (probably between the ages of 9-13). I think the only people that live on Montserrat are the 80 monks and the 25 boys who are in the choir and go to the boarding school for music that is also located in the montestary. After that we hiked around because that is really all there is to do on Montserrat. Although we didnt get to see the views we did get a really creepy cable car ride up the mountain through the fog.
This week is going to be horrible because I have 3 exams and an 8 page paper due. But, LUCKILY I am leaving for Dublin on Thursday morning :)
