Walking into History.
This morning we attended an Anglican service in a beautiful very very old church. I am not sure of the dates so I will have to do some reasearch when I remember to bring my computer with me while wifi hunting. But here are some pictures. It is a pretty incredible place, beautiful grounds, old building, narrow hallways and very old copper and mosaic images. It was like walking through history, I am hoping to stow away in a coffee shop this weekend and do more history research about Stonetown and the buildings. Many of them were built by the Portuguese when they controlled the island in the 16th century, but then the Omani Arabs took over a while later. So the culture here is crazy cool and the architecture is stunning.
