I never understood this one. It's pretty freaky tbh.
It's that story - not actually biblical, unless it's in the Catholic additions or something - that on Jesus's way to the hill where he was crucified, after he was whipped bloody and is staggering along with the cross on his back, he stops for a second where a friend - I don't know if it's Mary of Magdalene or some other random woman - offers him a cloth, which he presses into his face. Then she's left WITH THE PERFECT IMPRINT OF HIS FACE ZOMG. It becomes a holy relic.
Man, all these photos (and I went through all your London photo posts again too) make me want to travel again. :( I wish I had the money for a big European trip to go to London again...then perhaps Paris, since I've never been, though it'd have to be with someone who did speak French...then I want to hit more of eastern Europe, like Prague, Budapest, and Istanbul. And Vienna.
But lol, money. Also, I don't want to travel alone again. It'd have to be with a good group of friends who also know what they're doing.

And ooer, weird story...
Istanbul would be super interesting. Def different than the rest of continental Europe...
