God be in these parts...

Full again, I ventured out and took the bus to the old town area just around sunset:

The Basilica is a ways east of all that, and by the time I got there it was completely dark. Still a sight to behold:

The next time I'll make sure to spend more time to learn about the history of the place. This little after late-lunch walk took about 2 hours, and I was mindful that in less than 6 hours I'd have to be up and at 'em again!
