Was up in Vermont from Wednesday until today (Saturday). Wasn't sure I would be back Saturday or Sunday thus have no public Masses at which to preach. No homily. Decided to simply post a bunch of photos of Piran, Slovenia. Piran is a small town on the small coast of Slovenia situated on the Adriatic Sea. I only spent one day there but it was one packed with photography. The weather was perfect with periodic rain, occasional downpours, and clearing in the morning. Stayed in a Franciscan friary near the center of town. If I ever get back to Slovenia I head immediately to Piran where a friend has an apartment that he would be happy to loan me (it is his respite from being a surgeon elsewhere).

The center of town. Normally it would be jammed with tourists. It was not a good day to be a tourist.
|
Took refuge in an archway during a deluge. They came and went during the day.
 |
The Franciscan Friary at which I stayed. Traveled with another SJ who was attending a meeting there. Never saw him the entire time until we were returning home.
|
There is no water on the lens. Took refuge under an awning during another cloudburst. The rain is on the window of the shop in front of which I was standing.
 |
Followed this grop around for a while hoping they would stop. They did.
|
 |
The next morning. Within an hour the clouds cleared.

 |
| The harbor, the bell tower, and the baptistry, the hexagonal building to the right of the tower. |

Back to homilies next week.
