... always a bit hesitant initially, if the truth be told, but fall in step quickly after a few meals!). We’ve had the opportunity to see friends we’ve met here over the years and to make new ones. As in most retreats it is interesting to see the group form, storm, conform and reform over the days. They “hit the wall” a couple of days ago and, as an outsider, it was nice to see them beginning to look and experience refreshment and renewal. ...

We are getting very fit. Back in Assisi we managed to find a lovely cake shop and delicious cake and coffee.
