Then we held a little family church of sorts with spiritual thoughts and scriptures. It was a beautiful day so we headed out and enjoyed several different excursions. First we walked to the Santuario Romano Del Monte Calvario, an outdoor memorial garden walk less than a mile from our Airbnb<\/strong>.

Finally we drove another 10 minutes to the Tibetan Suspension Bridge. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
