avignon

yesterday and this morning we visited avignon...the city where the popes lived for a century when they moved from rome for largely political reasons. the papal palace is incredible! we ate our lunch on the rooftop...in a cafe built on what was once an audience reception area for the popes guests. avignon is still a walled city...as in medieval times. it is a truly beautiful and deeply historic place.

tonight we are in lyon and we drive to ars in our rented mercedes benz...a mistake in the resrvation got us a cheap upgrade because it was the only automatic tranny left! :) i canno wait to see ars. i have waited eleven years...ever since i heard of it from msgr farley at the pontifinium.

pray for me
