Back to My Trip...

Well, back to my trip!  I only have one more post after this, if you can believe it!  ;D
On the way to the city of Mysore, we passed some rice fields which were really cool!  It was my first time seeing them in real life.


Here are some oxen with a plow.


While we were in Mysore we went to this palace!  It was GORGEOUS!!!!  Like they should totally make a movie in there!  But unfortunately they don't allow any cameras what so ever, so this is the only pic. I got of it.  (You'll just have to use your imagination!)  ;)


We also visited this old Catholic church.


It was HUGE and the architecture was BEAUTIFUL!




Couldn't take pictures inside but it was soooo sad!  They were worshipping these figures of Jesus and Mary just as they would their other gods.  It was like this was just another religon added on to all the rest.  They have these beautiful, awesome smelling flower chains that they use in their Hindu worship and they were also putting these on the statues of Jesus and Mary.  Inside there were pictures on the walls of Jesus and different things in His life all the way to His death.  But the saddest part is that's where it ended!  It just made me so sad to think that these people had so much of the truth but were yet so far away!  It reminded me of the verse in 2 Timothy 3:5   'Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof...'  So sad...


Well, after that we went to a zoo which was REALLY cool!  So come back to see pictures from that!  Hope you all have a blessed Sunday!  :)
