In June 2008 I had been invited by a guy to visit Barcelona to charge my batteries before I a few weeks later was to perform as a leader on the Danish Gasherbrum expedition. I had never been in Barcelona before, not even on mainland Spain, so this was mostly becoming a tourist trip. But I was unable to hold back my natural attraction to high points, and after I the first days had visited the Rambla as well as the Montjuïc mountain, the famous La Sagrada Familia cathedral was next in line. |
