Filipinos Chocolate Covered Biscuits


Err... Should we be insulted??? haha :/ It was quite good though!

Fatima, Portugal

Our Lady of Fatima Basilica
Fatima, Portugal. They say it is a place of miracles. This is where Our Lady of Fatima appeared to 3 little shepherds-- Jacinta, Francisco and Luisa-- back in 1917.




Kneeling in front of the Chapel of Apparitions
Every 13th of May, thousands of people visit Fatima for their pilgrimage. This is the said anniversary of the first Marian Apparition. We actually arrived a week before the 13th and there were already so many people.


In another area, there was a group gathered around the crucifix. They started going around in smaller and smaller circles, hands all linked together.





Faith. It is a beautiful thing. It is what keeps us alive. :)
