Yesterday marked St. Wenceslas Day in the Czech Republic. As celebration, I traveled to Stará Boleslav with my 2 friends to see papež Benedikta XVI (the pope!)
(Sam and Chris waiting for Il Papa.)
Despite the fact that it was a very long walk and mass was in just about every language other than the one that we understand, it was completely worth it! Mass took a little over 2 hours (yikes!), but Benedict managed to drive 10 feet in front of us in the pope-mobile .
Additionally, Stará Boleslav holds the church where St. Wenceslas was martyred by his brother.
The experience was by far worth the trip!
