We decided that we wanted to try to visit as many temples in Europe as we could. We made plans to see 5 of them, but actually only made it to 2 of them. London, as mentioned in a previous post didn't happen.
We made it to Madrid. I love that temple! Beautiful! And right next to their MTC. It was fun to watch the new missionaries
Frankford, however, well that's an interesting story. We had the address and asked the lady at the Tourist Visitor Center how to get there...the funny thing is she sent us to the right address, but in the wrong town.
Where the temple should have been...
Doesn't Jess look happy?
The next one on our list the Bern Switzerland Temple. We called the temple to get directions and they sent us into a residential area. The gentleman who had given us the directions had told us to 'go under the building.' we were completely puzzled by that phrase, but it was the best we could get with the language barrier. We didn't understand until we can to a large aparentment buidling that had a tunal type passage that went 'under the building.' Coming out of the tunnel there suddently appared....da da da! An Angel Moroni! I can't even begin to explain the surge of emtion I felt at seeing Moroni. I'll confess I might have teared up, just a little. It was like coming home. I suddently didn't feel so unsure and we easiliy found the temple just by following Moroni.
The last temple was supposed to be the Copenhagen Denmark Temple, however we miss read the website and ended up being in Denmark the same the temple was closed. Sigh...happens I guess :) 2/5 isn't too bad right? Madrid and Switzerland were well worth it.
