Detour

Woke up early this morning because I had an appointment to get ready for after I taking Miki to school... or so I thought. Something nudged me to look at the calendar - Oh, look! My appointment was yesterday! *sigh* Really. What's my deal?

Since my morning freed up quite a bit, one the way back home I decided to go off our normal route and onto a little nook of a road. I love this "secret" road because it's off of a very busy city street, and once you part onto this small road, you feel like you've gone back in time and into a quieter place. This road is home to a convent, a cemetery, a school, and a church. The church was originally built in the late 1800s, and then parts were rebuilt after a fire in the early 1900s. We don't see many of it's style where we live.


I got dibs on the room with the balcony at the top.


They have one of these beautiful angel statues in every corner of their small cemetery, which is pretty ancient, from what I've read.



Was a pretty dreary day today. Definitely calls for a trip to the candy store.
