We could see this cathedral from the freeway on our way home from many of our P-day activities. We kept talking about trying to find it and finally did. The day was over cast and eventually started raining.
Graffiti is everywhere in
Sao Paulo and it is sad to see it all over the base of this beautiful structure.
The architecture of these cathedrals are wonderful
Grandpa/Vernon is the one that finds these terrific places for us to visit on our p-days
This dog had found a nice dry spot right next to the front door of the cathedral. He stayed there the whole time we were visiting the church.
The humidity is high in
Sao Paulo and rains a lot. Many times it sounds and looks like someone has turned on the shower when it rains, but today it only was only a lite shower.
There was no electric light on in the cathedral so I had to add fill light to the photos so you could see anything in the picture. The color was quit vivid but the photo looks washed out.
The tile floors were beautiful
The wedding decorator was in the cathedral when we were there. He told us that this dove represented the Holy Ghost. He also told us that they have weddings every weekend. They fill the cathedral with flowers. He said that the different families go in together to pay for the flowers. He also said that they will have a wedding every forty-five minutes.
Sculptures were throughout the cathedral
and ever wall had paintings representing the life of Christ
Every window was stained glass.
there seemed to be at least a hundred.
This is a shot is of the neighborhood right across the street from the front of the cathedral.
A charming outdoor restaurant is also right across from the cathedral where we were able to park

Brazilian dogs have a look that is quite different from dogs here.
Once again, a great outing with wonder architecture: my favorite.

Great pics! As you probably already know, Helen, Virginia & Ed,
Les and Lucile & Jack got together last month for a reunion in Salt Lake City. Wish I could have been there.
The Parker Family will be having a
reunion up at So. Lake Tahoe.
