Catedral Metropolitana
The Metropolitan Cathedral in Rio de Janeiro is incredibly surprising in shape and impact. When we first arrived and were told that this was a Cathedral we didn't quite know what to say. I thought it was such an ugly looking building, resembling n electricity cooling tower rather than a Cathedral.
I'm not big into Cathedrals and churches but they are usually quite attractive buildings and often have an interesting history. While we had been in South America we had been into quite a number of the really ornate, ostentatious Catholic churches which were full of gold and silver statues and other gilt decorations and so this was even more of a surprise because we expecting a similar Cathedral, maybe even bigger and more elaborate but no, what we were faced with was a simple concrete conical building with no ...

When Annabelle Fritton's father forces her to attend the school at which his sister is headmistress, she doesn't realise quite what he has let her in for - St Trinian's is seemingly governed by total anarchy, with the schoolgirls allowed to do exactly what they please. Headmistress, Miss Fritton, apparently has no control over them, yet she has their undying devotion. Annabelle slowly begins to realise exactly why this is. When the girls find out that St Trinian's is facing bankruptcy and may be shut down, they get together, with the help of Flash Harry, to ensure that this doesn't happen. Will they win the day? Or will the Minister of Education manage to get the school closed down?
