👍👍 I'm on business travel and just realized this church is close to my hotel. Noon daily Mass was well attended and presided by a relatively young priest. Very beautiful old sanctuary. Bulletin suggests an engaged parish with community. I enjoy old churches and will keep this parish in mind next time...

👍👍 So many trails! We had a lot of fun walking around- we were doing the Fairy Trail and only got to see 4 out of the 8 because we were getting turned around too many times. But it has great trails, and fishing locations... and the fairy houses are amazing! Definitely going back to finish the fairy tra...

👍 Very pretty, but unclear what there actually is to do there. Pretty little walk, pretty garden, but I don't think there were any buildings to go into, and no interpretation that we could find. It was nice! Especially in nice weather. Maybe not worth a drive on its own, but if you're going to Alexan...
