Day nine: We began this morning bright and early greeted with a spectacular view from the Basilica. We were treated to a private Mass in St. Anne's Chapel concelebrated by Fr. Tony and Fr. Jim. After Mass, we met our guide Caterina for our morning walking tour of Lourdes. Much of our tour centered around the places of importance to St. Bernadette including the Grotto where she experienced apparitions of a "young lady" 18 times from the 11th of February through the 16th of July in 1858. We toured the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception as well as the Basilica of St. Pius X before heading into town where we toured Bernadette's birthplace, the Boly Mill, a comfortable living space where Bernadette's family lived until she was ten years old.
