Sightseeing Around the Island

My parents came out for a visit last week, so a lot of sightseeing was in order.  We took them all around the island, and took pictures of some really cool things.  Above is an old fountain.  There are many of these around the island, and most of them have the year they were made inscribed onto them.  This is one of the oldest I've seen here- from 1876. 

Below is a pic of a city view- you can see the cathedral I talked about here

We walked down through the town and into the cathedral for the first time.  I got some inside shots, but they turned out a bit blurry because it was so dark. 

More pictures to come later!

  1. What beautiful scenes! I assume no one drinks from the fountain?

  2. I think those fountains used to be the city's water source; most are just decorative now.
