I love old mission style Churches as I'm sure many people do, and I've been thinking that I would love to take a road trip dedicated to visiting these old Churches. I don't see a trip like this being possible for 2010, but I'm hoping we can make it work in 2011.
I haven't looked into this yet, but I'm pretty sure we can find lots of Churches if we stayed along the coast. What a beautiful drive that is, even though I drove some of that last year, I would do it again in a heart beat.
Highway 1 is gorgeous, but, I would demand (yes, I said demand) that we drive up highway 1 and find another way to get home. Even if we rent a car to drive up and fly back down. Driving down the 1 means being on THE EDGE of the cliff and after nearly having a nervous break down the last time, I refuse to go through it again. As long as we're on the side of the road closes to the mountain, I'm good to go.
What places are you planning or just hoping to go to?
The picture was taken on last years road trip, it is the top of San Carlos Cathedral in Monterey, Ca. The reason I only took a picture of the top is because the rest of the Church was covered by scaffolding due to repairs.

I love this. Sometimes we just need to sit in a place where so many others have sat and FEEEEEEL God, feel his Church and see where others have come to be the living Church.
I hope to see sit through mass, any mass, and not have to change a diaper or feed a little one. I know I get the graces as I am living my vocation - but just to sit would be so grand. I think I'll plan so alone masses :)
In Christ,
Holly
I would love more than anything to go to Greece.
