Today there was no school, for as yet unknown reasons (there probably was a perfectly logical reason, I just didn't understand enough to know what it is). Which was pretty boring really. But then this afternoon, Larissa told me to put my coat on, and we got in the car, and drove off. Again with the not understanding enough to know why. Maybe 10 minutes drive out of town, we got to this teeny tiny beautiful chapel (the photo of the outside doesn't do it justice), with an amazing view back on the city. After mass we wandered around the gardens, and it was just so peaceful and beautiful and exactly what I needed. I only wish it was closer so I could walk there more often. The priest spoke english, so I talked to him a bit, and he was lovely (so lovely that I almost forgive him for "Oh New Zealand. Where in Australia is that?") I didn't take many photos- it seemed somehow innapropriate in such a peaceful place. Sometimes small things make an average day good.
