FORT DE FRANCE, MARTINIQUE - 2nd time here!

It was really nice to be in a familiar port, and on a Sunday so we could go to Mass. A group of us all went together which made it even more special. These teens were all making their confirmation and were being honored on the alter at the end of Mass.

Last week in the Portuguese church, I used Google translate during the Readings and the Homily and was able to understand a good 90% of what was being said by the readers and the Cardinal. I tried using Google translate again, this week and it went terribly wrong translating the French ! Below are a couple of the translations I got. I stopped trying after the last one!

After Mass we tried to get some group shots - below L to R - Holly, Amy, Fran, Kimberly & Phil and me with Steve and Ann, fellow Philadelphians - they actually live in Haverford. We did some dress shopping after Mass.
