Today was a day that consisted of less individual sights, but more on one particular sight - that would be none other than the Saturnia Museum of Art.

The clouds that hung over the sky yesterday returned.  The gardens of the museum were therefore empty, and allowed a nice time to see the gardens without them being busy.  

Thee museum itself is also superb, offering thousands of works spanning history.  The collection includes primarily painting and sculpture.  There is a main central atrium inside, and the different time periods are on either side of the building.  The atrium serves as a central point, but also as a nice place to switch mindset before taking in different areas of art.

We arrived at the museum shortly after its 9:30 opening.  We left at 3:00, That just goes to show the vast amount of potential that this museum has.  It's a wonder - a must see.  

Afterwards, we sought some peace and quiet in the Cathedral of St John the Evangelist, an impressive Gothic edifice on Grand Avenue.

And that was a very nice way to end a day.  The stained glass in the Cathedral is superb, each depicting a different Bible story.  It's the type of building that everyone knows, but few actually know the true beauty and nature of.
