And, may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead.
But if the clock on the left tower of the Roman Catholic Basilica in St. John's has the correct time and the devil checks the clock on the right tower, you better move it because he'll have a five minute head start on you! :-)
After I took this shot and noticed the clocks on the Basilica Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in downtown St. John's, I was reminded of that old Irish blessing. I've also heard it stated as fifteen minutes rather than a half hour. If so, it's doubly important you hustle! :-)
The Basilica Cathedral is an imposing structure on the downtown St. John's skyline. Perhaps only The Rooms (which you can't see in this photo) competes with it for more attention.
