What is a reflection meaning to you?

 

The portal to the other world?

The restoration of order and symmetry for us in this messy world?

The door open to the world of beauty>

The route leading you to the light?

 

No matter what the reflection is meaning to you, we just love to see them, right?

 

This is the reflection I saw this morning at minpru Park in the morning light.

Hacienda Sotuta de Peón has a nicely restored estate house. The home was only used when the wealthy owner came for a visit to the plantation, often bringing guests to impress them with their fine possessions.

 

Hacienda plantations were owned by a group of about 650 families. Tiring of life in the campo, these fabulously wealthy people moved to nearby Merida and built huge French-style mansions, like the ones on Paseo Montejo. The windfall came to an abrupt end after the Mexican revolution.

 

President Lazaro Cardenas had the haciendas appropriated and divided into peasant-owned ejidos and small farms in 1937.

 

Prices of henequen shot up and markets for it disappeared. The advent of plastics didn’t help either. By 1950, abandoned hacienda buildings were ubiquitous.

 

Hacienda Sotuta de Peón was built at the end of the 19th century and produced henequen (a local type of agave) rope until 1965. It sat deteriorating until 1985 when a personal restoration project was initiated by Don Adolfo Lubke. Lubke took another 20 years painstakingly restoring the hacienda opening it to the public in 2005.

I wonder why this was rejected by the "Empty Seats" group. There is a swing seat on the framework under the tree.

A first look at Palau de la Música Catalana concert auditorium, a view seen by performers on the stage.

 

4 of 9.

 

The Concert Auditorium – one of the most distinctive in the world – is for more than hundred years the privileged setting for the musical life, both national and international, of the city of Barcelona.

 

Dominated by a central skylight portraying the sun, the auditorium is filled with natural light.

 

The concert auditorium was designed as a home for Barcelona's choir, the Orfeó Catalá. The amateur choir still perform at the venue today.

 

The largest and most well-known space in the Palau is the Concert Hall. This is a 2,146 seat venue with an ornate glass roof - the main setting for concerts and recitals.

Have a Fantastic Day Friends

Sad that spectators could not be there to see the current Olympic Games. I'm sure many people watch them on TV as we have been doing also. This Covid-19 Pandemic has really made life difficult even for the athletes .

I am still watching a lot of the Olypmics 2020 in Tokyo and I really love watching all these great athletes. My sister and I wanted to be in the Olympics, we dreamed of it, but alas, we moved away from UK where MAYBE we might have had a chance and came to Montreal and High School was a Concrete Jungle so we had to beg to use McGill Univ. grounds sometimes to work out. No chance then. We did learn to swim in HS and that was a blessing.

The small church of the Vergine delle Grazie (The Church of the Virgin of Graces), better known as the Church of the Star, is located in Piazza Leandra and is one of the oldest in Civitavecchia.

 

The church is the seat of the Archconfraternity of the Gonfalone, founded by San Bonaventura in 1274.

 

Tradition has it that San Bonaventura, before embarking for Lyon, passed through Civitavecchia where, following the request of numerous faithful, he founded a brotherhood which took the name of Company of the Banner .

 

During the struggles and uprisings that took place in Rome in 1354, the Confraternity managed to restore calm and put an end to the massacres, in the name of the Virgin Mary. The Holy Cross thus became the emblem, the flag and the banner of peace and justice.

 

The confreres, wishing to create their own church and oratory, requested the Church of the Stella from the Ordinary of Civitavecchia Brancacci in 1688, which at their expense they enlarged, embellished and endowed with rich sacred furnishings and works of art.
