I've recently returned from a trip to France and Belgium. That was great!
Thaks a lot to The_FD, he helped me greatly when I was in Paris. It's really wonderful to meet someone you've never seen but got acquainted through the Internet. I've been to Notre-Dame, Louvre, Sainte-Chapelle, Monmartre, Sacre-Coeur, walked all over the center. And I also visited the Cathedral of Alexandre Nevsky, Orthodox Church where I had a chance to sing during the service.
Though it was my first voyage...

The most important and wonderful event of the week to my mind. The patriarch of Russian Orthodox Church Alexy II finished a service in Notre-Dame cathedral, Paris.

The crisis of catholicism speaks in the words of Andre Vingt-Trois, bishop of Paris, who said: "We as Catholics are confident that we have much to learn and receive from the experience of Orthodox Churches." (he told to our patriarch).
