Hi Jack, those churches were awe-inspiring. Now that I’m home again, our churches seem stark in comparison.

The interiors of those churches were so very vibrant, a feast for the eyes of which my photos show only a tiny morsel! Happy Christmas to you, too, Lisa. As for the Sydney to Hobart, even I have heard of that. How exciting for you to be there for it!

The Churches are each stunning in their unique ways, Dan. Have a wonderful day in Connecticut. It’s 26 C here, perfect for eating outside – very different from your Christmas, I imagine.

A Northern Christmas! Have a wonderful day. Do you have snow, yet?

No! It’s too warm and wet. The Highlands might get a bit tomorrow, but not us. Bad news for the ski resorts.
Thanks for the good wishes, have a wonderful time.

Thanks and the pictures are beautiful .. It’s funny but most churches seem to be built out of love and devotion to God! Any God but definitely faith. A place where we can all share. I think sometimes it separates people and that part is sad to me. This Christmas visit at least 3 others be they a temple or a mosque or another version of Christianity like Lutheran or Roman Catholic or Ukrainian … Blessing to you all and sending love too! Rick =)
