Two Catholic priests decided to take a well-deserved vacation to Honolulu, determined to blend in and enjoy the trip incognito. They made a pact not to wear anything that would give away their identity.
As soon as the plane landed, they beelined to a local beachwear store, where they purchased outrageously colorful shorts, flamboyant shirts, stylish sandals, and oversized sunglasses.
The next morning, feeling like regular vacationers, they strolled along the beach in their new, attention-grabbing outfits. Seated in a beach bar, sipping on refreshing drinks and soaking up the sun, they couldn’t help but notice an attractive blonde woman in a bikini walking towards them.
Her beauty was mesmerizing, and they found themselves unintentionally staring. To their surprise, she greeted them, saying, “Good morning, Father,” and “Good morning to you too, Father,” as she passed by.
Stunned into silence, the priests wondered how she could possibly know they were clergy. Determined to keep their cover, they returned to the beachwear store later that day, purchasing even more flamboyant outfits, ones so loud you could hear them from a mile away.
The following day, dressed in their new, outrageous attire, they settled back into the beach bar for another cold drink. Once again, the same attractive blonde, donned in a different bikini, approached them.
She nodded at each of them, repeating, “Good morning, Father,” and “Good morning to you too, Father.”
Baffled at being recognized once again, one of the priests finally spoke up, “Just a minute, young lady.”
“Yes, Father?” she responded.
“It’s true, we’re priests, and we’re proud of it,” he admitted. “But how on earth do you know we are priests, dressed as we are?”
With a smile, the blonde replied, “Father, it’s me, Sister Philomena!”
