Awesome Tour thankx to Fr. Kevin and his assistant Maureen

Blog 3 of 3 ~ Final time in DC and Virginia

Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception





We were so luck to be able to go up in the bell tower; the view of downtown was amazing.





This was The Sister's favorite chapel, and mine.



A view of the organ in the upper Church.


One of three domes; the third dome was still blank

Beautiful Altar

This was another amazing chapel.
The African Chapel displayed race in the U.S.



This was on the floor as you entered the African chapel; it depicted the entrance of must slaves into the U.S.
