A few more Fatima thoughts

All in all this was quite an experience. It was initially very overwhelming. The Basilica again looks like something from Disney. The interior Sanctuary is very peaceful amidst the throngs of people.

It was interesting observing all of the different types of people. Some were actually crawling to the Basilica on their hands and knees. Others would lie flat on there tummies in front of the alter. Others would only take pictures. I saw the selfie stick a lot. Still others would just walk by....Young, old, in wheelchairs, walking with canes or with a guide dog.....

There was also a candle section Some people had candles 5 feet in length!!!!

Tomorrow is a very long day. Fatima to Salamanca 9 hours on the bus, and then an hour train to AvilaRead more
