On Sunday, we did a little "pilgrimage" with Grandma and Grandpa to Einsiedeln. It's a Catholic pilgrimage spot only 20 minutes away. Apparently, in 964 A.D. when they attempted to create the original monastery, he was halted by a heavenly voice insisting that God had already consecrated it. They were doing a service inside, so we didn't get to see much of the sumptuous interior (rare in the mostly Protestant Switzerland). Mariah and Anna, however, still really enjoyed climbing around the steps.
