Since Ireland...

Not too much has been going on around here since Ireland. We just finished up our last two weeks bring us into spring break which was much needed! Around Bernardi what we call "the Bernardi Plague" has been going around. Some form of influenza, which has hit most of us has made for a pathetic couple weeks around here!

Last weekend we went on our silent retreat for the semester! It was such a beautiful establishment that we stayed at! It was about a 2 hour bus ride from Bernardi through beautiful countryside. It was quite an amazing weekend spent in silence and prayer for everyone!

This past week was just spent then making it through for spring break. I had a test and a presentation earlier in the week. As soon as that was over I pretty much felt home free even though I still had a couple classes I needed to sit through.

This weekend we are pretty much just relaxing. Palm Sunday we will be going to mass with the Pope at the Vatican and other than that we are all happy to simply be able to rest and have no obligations!

I plan on doing some traveling in the next two weeks off and on so I may not get to the blog in the next couple weeks, but when I get back I will try and be better about getting my updates quicker! I hope to make it to either Venice, Italy or Pisa and Lucca in Italy this week. Then spend Easter here in Rome. After Easter then I will be going to Prague in the Czech Republic and Vienna in Austria! I look forward to all these experiences and I will keep you updated as much as I can!

I wish you all a very Blessed Easter!

Arrivederci!
