Beaches & Cathedrals

On Tuesday afternoon, Jim took our guests to Laguna Beach so they could see the ocean while they were visiting. The day was still clear so they were able to have sunshine even though the day was windy.

The lovely couple

In the evening we went to the Crystal Cathedral for the production of "The Glory of Christmas."
Our seats were located in the east balcony, so we had the angels flying over our heads, the trumpeteers standing only a few feet in front of us, and the organist playing the massive pipe organ off to our left! It was awesome to watch the story unfold! We really enjoyed the music and the story of Christmas that never grows old--no matter how many times we hear it. The cathedral was decorated so beautifully for Christmas.
After the program ended, Jim and Mary drove back to Vegas where they took their plane back home. Thanks J&M for your visit and a wonderful time together!These two students spent many hours studying for their upcoming boards. But occasionally they would take a break and go for a walk around the block, or snuggle up on the couch to watch a TV program and drink some hot chocolate!
Thanks M&G for a wonderful time together. We'll be praying for you in the days ahead as you take your tests and as you continue to travel and interview for your next job!
