See #57, above.
Your prayers are best directed to some other intention.
"Let the dead bury the dead."

But what about the outside?
Nothing the next Bernini can't fix...

If Divine justice is done, when the 'big one' hits LA this new cathedral will be decimated and St. Vibiana's will remain standing.

Re the pictures in #27 and #34, the priests and the woman seem to be looking in confusion and utter disbelief. I mean, the look on a couple of those priests' faces is priceless, as if to say "What in the heck is that?"

It was unceremoniously dumped in an unmarked hole in the ground--no ceremony, no marker, no nothing. Would appreciate a link to that information. Thanks.

fabricated in Mexico; with kneelers."

We're saving for a family trip. It has been one of my lifelong dreams to see it in person. I have every book about it that I could find, some are delightful to view - nearly like prayer itself.
We will probably try for next summer, depending on the state of the world at the time. I'll share pics when we return.

I'm envious! I'd love to visit Istanbul and Hagia Sophia. I ran across a very beautiful picture of the outside once and was astounded at the beauty of the architecture. Normally, I favor Baroque or Gothic structures, but HS is a masterpiece. I'd love to see your pics when you return. =)
