Oakland Temple

Temples are such a wonderful thing. You feel so good by just being on the grounds. They keep the outside as beautiful as the inside. I guess they should since it is the house of the Lord. Once again we took the tour through the Visitor's Center and watched the video on the family. Afterwards we walked the top of the temple. It wasn't quite clear enough to see the Golden Gate bridge, but we were able to see the Bay bridge. What awesome structures we have built today.It was interesting because while we were there, photographers were taking pictures of newly married couples...which is not the interesting part.But here were also other photographers that were taking pictures for some girl's quinceanera. These girls had on gorgeous colorful dresses with a whole entourage. It looked like a wedding party yet the bride was under age, and in a colorful not modest dress.It was interesting that they chose the LDS Temple to take their pictures.The grounds are beautiful.Now off to Fenton's Creamery for some old fashioned ice cream! YUM, thanks Jon! Nothing beats the black and tan!
