How could I have not been here before now? I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

It was amazing! I couldn't believe how nice it was. :) Did you go over to the monastery cemetery? That was my favorite part. There's something so calming about cemeteries for me.
I second that it's worth the visit. I had always heard about it and just assumed it was kind of touristy-cheesy. Boy was I ever wrong. We took the kids there on the way home from Tennesse some time ago. Remarkable what this man did.

We do the craft show there every spring, and I still haven't been there! I keep meaning to... maybe this fall.
I went to the Blooming Festival there several years ago, but didn't take the time to stop by the grotto. It's definitely worth a visit!
