28 February 2010: DAY 59 (WEEK 9)

attended the mass early that morning, our family offered for the mass.



just before lunch, sis. odile asked me to take some photos of the convent, the chapel and the nuns during the angelus. it was such an honor to photograph them and the place. i had a grand tour of the convent. i decided not to those photos... not too many people are allowed inside the convent anyway.
after lunch we decided to go around st. maur and see some sights. sis. odile suggested some places we can go to.
our first stop is...i forgot!! i have to ask my husband first and then i will edit this later.



then we went to a big vineyard. the place is called Chateau Chalon. we didn't see any castle, but the place is just known for that. too bad there weren't any green yet in the vineyard, it would have been so beautiful. but it was still nice to see all the lines ready for the grapes.





then we headed back to the monastery...


late that evening, we joined the nuns in the recreational area. isabelle distributed all her drawings, the nuns were truly delighted!!! we shared with them the news about our move to canada. they wished us good luck and they said they will pray for us.
