Abbaye De Hautecombe

Yesterday was Wednesday so naturally we had it off but it was also a holiday. Celebrating the end of World War II. So yesterday we went out with a couple of the other missionary families, went to go check out a local Abbaye. 


To get to the Abbaye, we had to ride a boat across a lake. 


The view was so pretty.



This abbaye is considered a historical abbaye in France. It has been around since 12th century and was build by a Queen and King of France. 



Even though this abbaye is home to many monks and studying students, we didn't get to see any. We did meet a young American who was taking her vows later to become a nun. I guess that is pretty cool. 

This abbaye mark church number 20 for me here in Europe. I only have 80 more to go to reach my goal of 100.
