monastary

So this one picture from the monastary that we went to last Tuesday (June 19). It was very gilded and packed with people. We went because there is an icon there that is revered by many Poles, and there is much history to be told. We had a monk as our tour guide. He was hilarious. He spent some time in the States so he could make great puns. One of the last ones that he said (which I thought my sister would enjoy), was, "Do you know how we get our holy water? We boil the hell out of it." Well, there you go. Then he gave us a blessing and a benediction. Nice man; nice church.
