We were late! The road turned out to be under construction, some stretches of the road very uneven and it was impossible to drive faster, even with the escort of the motorcade and the police. Several times, people stood by the road greeting Our Lady with tears in their eyes, flowers in their hands, kneeling on the ground as She passed by. These were touching moments, but the time was passing mercilessly, and at last, we were a whole hour late arriving in Gietrzwald.
