This view of the church was actually taken from below, where the grotto (Nossa Senhora de Lourdes) was!
These the steps upon which we'd sit and view the Mass in the lit grotto! It was very quaint and beautiful! It actually, very closely, resembled a creche!
My goodness! Exactly where I lived for 9 1/2 years, in Sao Francisco, Niteroi!!
This the very church to which I went, religiously, where my dear Padre Tonelli was the priest! I am sorry to know that they did away with the grotto, where we'd have open Mass during good weather!
The breath-taking views from up the hill, right by my house, which I'd climb to see the Baia de Guanabara present itself as the most beautiful silver plate on moonlit nights!

OH! The beaches and the sound of the waves!
