πŸ‘πŸ‘ A beautiful sacred space, blocks from the Capital. I’ve been to two daily Masses here, and have very much felt at home. The windows are beautiful. The space is also very handicap accessible. A ramp on the left side (looking at the Cathedral from outside) goes into the church. Ample space and a ramp...

Drinks are delicious, and the sunsets are glorious. Igloos are just so cool and cozy! It's great that this place is open year round!
