Picture Update!!

With the Vigil and Papal Mass, and the recovery thereafter, we haven't had a chance to be online in a while. Sorry for the three-day delay, but here are some pictures of our adventures during the official duration of World Youth Day 2008 (finally!). We are all off to the Blue Mountains today with Fr. Bernard from St. Benedict's, so hopefully we will get a chance to write a little more about our experiences in the coming evening. If not, rest assured that we will be writing more when we get home and are able to really reflect on all that has happened.

For now, enjoy the pictures!

God bless, and G'day!
Rakhi

P.S. - These are a little out of order, but enjoy them nonetheless!!
