First we made a walk through the quiet gardens of the monastery. These were beautiful coloured in warm orange and red because of autumn. After a short prayer at the Mary chapel we went drinking a La Trappe bock beer. The beer was dark ruby coloured and had an full smell of malt. It tasted nicely, was not to sweet as other bock beers often are, and had a gentle bitter aftertaste. As a side dish we chose to eat some very tasteful trappist bread which had a nice aroma and structure. We had a nice talk which we usually never have at our busy times in our students' house. After our drink we walked through the gardens back to the bus stop agreeing that we have had a nice and inspiring day.
