The 377-foot (115-meter) spires on Quito's Basilica del Voto Nacional make it the tallest church in Ecuador.

Your last two photos have been quite in-spire-ing. Those two clocks are pretty much in sync, too. If they could sing, what song could those clocks use to serenade a reprobate? Time is always on their side, isn’t it? So this one?
