The visit continues...the tour, lunch and Mass...cool

We then went on the walking tour. This was the least impressive part of the day. Not because the campus was not impressive...just that they left only an hour to do this and you cannot see the entire campus in an hour. We were rushed and the tour guide although very very nice....was more excitement and "coolness" then substance.

We then attended noon mass. They have thee mass's a day. The noon mass was as crowed as any Christmas mass I have ever attended. Standing room only. It was also the loudest mass I have ever attended. The singing and the responses were deafening. We both enjoyed the mass. It was then off to lunch. The food was college food, but there was lots of choices and surprisingly tasty.

The last class for the day was Christian morals class. It took me 45 minutes to figure out what this guy was talking about. About 5 minutes in I passed a note to Taylor that let her know that I was probably not smart enough to be in this class. He was teaching about Beatitude. If you are again in the dark on what this is.....I am not that far ahead of you. I had heard of the beatitudes....kinda knew what they were....but how this guy was explaining things I was totally lost. Not to my surprise, Taylor knew exactly what the guy was talking about....a little humbling. I was so lost that I used my trusty IPhone and looked up the definition.....then it started to come together,

When class ended we went over to the book store for a souvenir and then drove back to the airport.

Overall a great experience. Taylor loved the school a counts.
