Italy Travels

Hi my name is Tom Wilson from the Huon Parish.

The Pilgrimage has provided many great experiences right from the very beginning.

From spending 14+ hours with our fellow pilgrims on the flights to Rome, to the great and inspiring churches and cathederals that spread throuthout the Italian Region.

Great Gothic-style cathederals provide thought provoking moments. Just seeing the 100s of years old artwork which reflect spiritual journeys made by saints, popes, and other people and events bring thoughts of bravery, patience and perserverence.

Not only the land marks bring thoughts and experiences but also pilgrims, with events like Amilia slopping her dessert over her face tonight, to attempts of speaking Italian (with accents) and locals laughing at us, not necessarily with us.

Hope all is well at home,

Ciao
