Milan, did you get it? Of course you did -and so did Joani, Jim, Carol, Michelle, Mariann, Milt, Elaine, and Mike!
"Unitarian Memorial Church Ceiling"
Continuing in the Town of Fairhaven, We broke for lunch before descending on the Unitarian Memorial Church. This house of worship was home to amazing stained glass windows, fascinating stone sculptures, and well-preserved wood structures. I was immediately drawn to the ceiling in the meeting room. I walked around for quite some time to get just the right angle. With my trusty tripod in place, I got this shot.

Where in the World?
Better get out the atlas as this year I will be featuring some of the more famous cities of the world! I will offer some interesting facts about one of them. Just which city am I describing?
has been
described as one of the world’s greatest cities. It serves as the national
capital of the its country, and is the second largest city in
the country
It is, in
fact, the political, educational and cultural hub of the country.
The ‘Peking
Man’ has been documented as having been the earliest inhabitant here;
his remains were found in the Dragon Bone Hill. The fossils date back to about 230,000-250,000
years old.
Today, the
city is spread in an area of over 16,410 square kilometers, and has a population
of about 15 million.
For lessons
in the country’s history, your first stop should be the Forbidden City. The Forbidden
City is a huge palace complex that has housed the Emperors.
Check your
guess with this tidbit: right across the Forbidden City is the Tiananmen
Square. The Tiananmen Square is near the heart of the city, and also
has the distinction of the being the largest open-urban square in the world.
