Sunday, May 7 (week 15 / day 105) Pordenone, Italy

Breakfast Before Church
Another awesome breakfast...

Pordenone Military Ward
11:00am was the perfect time so we could thoroughly enjoy the breakfast. It was fast Sunday but we couldn't say no to our hosts! We were told that this is the only free-standing chapel in Italy since all the others are part of a commercial or otherwise shared building. We walked in just before it started but there were only 3 or 4 families sitting in the back of the chapel with only the bishop & his wife conducting the music on the stand. After a the opening prayer there were a few more families that came in. One of the sister missionaries, Cazier, is the daughter of someone Stacia went to highschool with!

Taco Mania
We don't usually go out to eat on Sunday but when we heard there was a taco place nearby, we made it a priority. We haven't had Mexican food for months & it tasted soooooooooo good!




Piancavallo
We drove up 2,000 feet into the mountains behind Budoia to the ski resort town of Piancavallo, now deserted. We stopped in the center of town for some family pics...
