From Paris our group continued on to the famous meditational/prayer community of Taizé in the Macôn-ville area, Burgundy region. It's founder,
Bro. Roger, was recently killed (August 18, 2005) by a crazed volunteer so we just missed seeing him by 9 days. Our brief stay there was a
welcome respite from the hectic schedule of our no-frills European Tour that began last August 8, 2005.
