Hurrah!</DIV>

face="Palatino Linotype" size=2 FAMILY="SERIF" PTSIZE="10">Hello you
all,<BR>The Archdiocese of Santiago has announced that, commencing on June
lst, general visits to the roof of the Cathedral will be
possible.<BR>Structural measures to insure the safety of the visitors will
have been completed by then.<BR>The visits will be allowed in groups of 25
people accompanied by a guide that will refer to the historical and religious
connotations of the roof structures. <BR>The visitors will congregate at the
Portico de Gloria and will ascend to the roof going up a stairway to its
left that leads to the Carraca tower. Once there visitors will traverse
to the other side of the Cathedral nave to the Tower of the Bells. From there,
visitors will emerge onto the open roof wherefor they will be able to gaze
upon the Cathedral's cloister, the Platerias Square, the Literna, the Farrapos
Cross, the Girola, the Quintana square, the Corticela, the Azabacherias Square
and the whole of Santiago including Pedroso Mount from the north side..<BR>By
virtue of being a pain-in-the-neckish pushy New Yorker I managed to be
"invited" to the roof of the Cathedral once. Let me tell you: you
really, really, don't want to miss it.<BR>I'm glad that, henceforth, anyone
who makes a reservation for the purpose can partake of the incredible
spellbinding insights from the center of whatever it is that draws us to the
Apostle's tomb.<BR>Warm regards,<BR>Rosina
