We spot Iza coming towards us on Broadway.
The Cathedral of St. John was on the way and Iza had been in there for a ceremony the week before so we stopped in to take a look.
Outside the Cathedral
A slightly better picture.
Inside the cathedral. Iza is looking up in the background.
There wasn't much lighting inside. I wasn't sure where the bluish tint comes from. Might be hidden lighting.
The Cathedral of St. John.
One of the many stain glassed windows.
The place was relatively empty.
We noticed that people were congregating behind us. It turns out an organ concert was about to start behind us.
We pose while everyone behind is waiting for the concert. We finally clued in when the conductor asked us if we would like to listen and guided us to some choice seats.
We sit down with a great view of the organist.
You can see some of the organ pipes on the opposite wall as well as the console from where it is played.
The priest played the organ. He was very good.
Playing the organ. Not sure what the video screens on the right top did for the organist...perhaps when he has a choir he can keep an eye on them.
On the way out.
Walking around Columbia where Iza is doind her Masters.
Anisa spots a puppy and of course accosts the people.
And of course she got to hold it.
Iza and Anisa found the hidden owl.
It was a very pleasant day that afternoon.
Walking around campus.
The new gym is under the area we are walking on.
Iza's room overlooks the courtyard and is nice and quiet.
The deluxe dorm that Iza is staying in. I don't remember dorms being this nice at Columbia...30 years ago.
