The 8th Wonder!!!

Just earlier, we concluded our list of visits on my birthday with what's known as the 8th Wonder of the World!!!  And no, it's not King Kong.  It's a huge monastery!  No pictures were allowed inside, but it's architecture looked somewhat of a cross between Romanesque and Gothic--and the outside is also remarkably beautiful! 

I also saw swans! 

It was a beautiful place and a great way to spend a birthday!
