First destination of Day four, we went to the house (final resting place if i’m not wrong..) of (mother) Mary. We arent allowed to take pictures in the house.. so these are just outside shots..  F1070007 F1070008 F1070009

There’s this wall outside where ppl’ll write their wishes on paper (mostly tissue paper cos thats the only paper tourists have) and they stick it to the wall..   F1070010 F1070011 F1070012 F1070013 F1070014
