Arrived in the pilgrim town of Czestochowa, try asking for that bus ticket and seeing where you end up. It a pilgrim town because of the sacred relic of the Black Madonna which resides at the Monastery of Jasan Gora. It’s a painting of the Virgin Mary and the Christ Child which is believed to have been painted by Saint Luke. Maybe he should have spent more time in art class rather than playing about on the Sea of Galilee as it looks like more like a baked potato cradling a grape to me. Apparently people walk for 20 days to get here and bring the picture offerings. Miracles are common judging from the number of crutches left behind, although I did notice the disabled lift at the exit as well as the entrance, so they are not guaranteed. It certainly draws the crowds, the place was full of devotees on their knees. Pope John Paul II is quite popular around here, judging by the number of statues of him. Some are of a better likeness than others. One looks more like Private Godfrey than the late Pontiff. Maybe there is a secret cult of Dad`s Army in the city.
