Montserrat
Today, I feel like taking a break from the photos of China and move to Spain. This is on the way up to the Montserrat monastery, outside of Barcelona. The monastery is in the mountains and is a short hike up. We were lucky to catch the afternoon sun behind the peaks as we were approaching the town.

Neoclassical Pavilion
It’s been a while since my last post. I’ve returned to my apartment in France more than a month ago and it’s only now that I finally got internet. I guess Internet providers have their own idea of what’s an acceptable waiting time.
This photo is form the Parc (Jardin) del Laberint d’Horta in the north of Barcelona in the district of Horta-Guinardó. The name of the park gives it away that this particular pavilion isn’t the major attraction, but I still find it to be interesting. Apparently the whole area belonged to one family.

Beach Days
September has barely come but the weather here in Midi-Pyrénées seems to be too eager to leave the summer sun behind. I hope it’ll change it’s mind but for now to counter the clouds I feel like posting something from the beach.

Back to Toulouse
The summer is coming to an end and so has my wonderful time in Barcelona. I still have lots to post from the beautiful city (if I don’t get lazy) but for now it’s back to Toulouse.

Street Lamp
Sometimes it’s in the details and it’s the small things in a big city that get your attention. This is just an average street lamp in Barcelona. It, among many other things, makes me think of how the city was a century ago. This particular one is from one of the parks at the very north of the city. You can see St. George’s cross on the coat of arms of the city, something I didn’t know just a few months ago.
