Diana: Day 6
Today started out with me and Beth going to town
to get some pastries. We got back to the hotel and got ready to go to the train
station. The thing was, we had to run to catch the bus. I talked to a woman in
French and met a guy that was an exchange student. One of the trains got
stopped because of construction work, so we had to get on a bus that would take
us to Libourne and from there a train to Ste Foye la Grande. When we got to the
meeting place, we went with the monks in their vans and drove to Plum Village.
When we got there we walked around and checked it out. It is absolutely
amazing! It is so beautiful. It is green and peaceful. After we walked around a
little we ate dinner. It was not bad. Actually, it was really good. I had brown
rice, vegetables, tomato, and soup. After we went to our rooms, we meet at the
meditation hall. We meditated for an hour which was really cool. Thank you
Cheryl for teaching us and helping us with meditation. I knew what to do for
the most part. After, we went back and blogged.

It sounds like you are getting to try a lot of new food. On the bright side it sounds like you guys got some exercise in running to the bus. Fun! The scenery sounds beautiful, and I can't wait to see pictures. Have a good time with Cheryl, and Namaste. Don't forget to play ping pong with the monks. -Faith
