Today’s Question(s): Have you been to the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican? If yes, how well did it measure up to your expectations?
No, but I've been to St Paul's Cathedral in London and Westminster Abby in Westminster, a small town bordering London. Srsly.
St. Paul's is definitely the more impressive of the two. You really feel like you're in an Old World cathedral. Inside you can climb the steps into the dome balcony.
Westminster Abbey is smaller, but full of lots of scupltures and burials, from times when people used to be buried IN the church, if they're families were notable enough anyway.
Westminster Abbey is also very near Parliament and Big Ben.
Have you ever attended a concert at the Fillmore Auditorium, San Francisco? If yes, who was the star of the concert?
No, I've never been to San Francisco.
When I was a kid one of my older brothers took me to see Chicago at Reunion Arena in Dallas. I've also been to concerts at Bass Performance Hall, FedEx Forum and some place in near Albany, New York that I don't remember the name of.
