One of the things that I have always enjoyed in my travels through Europe was the visit to see the churches. I am surprised, though, that so many French people would be observing a religious holiday. At one time that country was very oriented toward the Catholic religion but I understand that most of the French people are pretty secular and not interested in any kind of religion. Just wait, if that is true. The Muslims are gaining a toehold there as they were never able to do when they tried to do centuries ago. They nearly conquered Spain at one time. They left behind a wonderful legacy of architecture in southern Spain, of course.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-294756097506819118.post-10327894667545473022010-06-14T10:42:37.490-07:002010-06-14T10:42:37.490-07:00Beautiful Susan.

The old churches in Europe are amazing and it's interesting with your being there on Ascension Day. We stayed in a hotel in Stuttgart next to a church whose many bells rang loudly every 15 minutes, 24 hours a day. It was incredible and I wish I remembered the name of the church.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02158336083462589188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-294756097506819118.post-41418738514029855552010-06-13T10:47:24.076-07:002010-06-13T10:47:24.076-07:00Great post, Susan.
