Montserrat... the Monestary on a Mountain...

Today David and Mark stayed home to work and set us out on our own to take a train to Barcelona, transfer to another for the destination of Montserrat!  It was simply breathtaking, we had to take a cable car up the mountain, then enjoyed a ride in a funicular to the tippy top where we hiked.  Before all of that we snuck into their Basilica during mass and were amazed by the beautiful cathedral and the statue of the Black Madonna.  We got back and had dinner out with the boys at an excellent Italian restaurant on the beach... we have really had a wonderful time, but with all things it must end, tomorrow we head to Rome for an overnight and finally head home to Mollee and Pikkles on Wednesday

The wallet that Josie made out of duct tape, daddy put it
in his back pocket in case he was to be
pick pocketed... there weren't any takers.
(the bills are fake:)

My Computer couldn't get internet at the hotel,
so Dree and I had a late night snack at
a café to get the blog updated
