Strolling in San Francisco: From the Divine to the Porcine (Part 1 of 2)

During our strolls in San Francisco, we see a wide variety of things, often during the same stroll.  

One recent day, we headed to Grace Cathedral, a large Episcopal church atop Nob Hill.  There, we met our friends Kay and Tom from D.C. for a socially distant picnic in Huntington Park, next to the church.  We first met Kay and Tom during Year 3 and they recently relocated from D.C. to San Francisco. 

After the picnic, we visited the exterior of Grace Cathedral.  (The interior has been closed since March.)  There, we discovered an outdoor labyrinth.  Check it out.  

The Grace labyrinth is based on the design of the labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral, which we have also  visited.  

Both of us walked the Grace labyrinth and here's Greg in the center:

We also admired the main doors of Grace Cathedral.  The sculpted panels on the bronze doors are copies of Ghiberti's doors on the Baptistery in Florence.  We saw those many times during Year 2.  It was impressive to see the replica here in San Francisco.

We also admired a sculpted door handle.
