A Blessed Day At Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupre

I also wanted to show all of you my blessed adventure of going to Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupre. It was wonderful! In the Visiter's Guide it says: "Fire destroyed the first Basilica in 1922. Construction of the present Basilica began the following year, inspired by great Romanesque cathedrals". Isn't that so interesting! I hope you like the pics! Enjoy!













                                                    (above) These are the crutches of men and
                                                    women who were miraculously healed.

                                                    (above) St. Teresa.


                                                   (above and below) This is the arm bone
                                                   of St. Anne, The Virgin Mary's mother.
















                                                    (above) This was one of my favorite
                                                     statues.



                                           (above) This tiled mosaic is depicting hell.
                                            (below) This tiled mosaic is depicting Heaven.















                                                    (above) This may look like the actual Pieta,
                                                    but it is not. It is an exact replica.



















                                           (above) If you look at the cross in the middle, which Christ is hanging from, it                                                looks there is blood dripping down.








Hey everyone! Sorry I was not able to post anything yesterday! To make it up to you, I'll show you the pics that I took yesterday. Hope you like them! Enjoy!

The French Language and Culture

For the past couple of days it has been a blast! I love the french culture and language! I am studying the language by using Rosetta Stone. I love it! The pictures help a lot and help you to remember words and phrases! For the past couple of days, I have been practicing my French at resturants, shops, and outside activities. I am in a perfect situation, by being able to be right in the middle of a French speaking province!

Hey everybody! I have some more pics from my past festival adventures! Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions!
