Holy Week in Poland 🇵🇱

For our last vacation living in Europe we decided to go to…Poland!! 

Our first few days there we stayed in our good friend’s hometown. It’s an hour from the Ukraine border. 

For Palm Sunday we went to mass at a beautiful Franciscan monastery on a mountain. It is on the border of oil avd avd Ukraine. From the parking lot (on the Polish side) you look out over Ukraine. It’s so surreal thinking about the war happening just a few hours away. 


We got Polish palm branches before the mass. We had to stand outside during mass because the church was so full!

Castle in Lancut (our friend’s hometown):



Then we spent two days in Krakow as a family.

We got home Wednesday night so we could spend the Triduum, and our 10 year anniversary, in Gaming!

It was a great final trip :)
