A week ago Sunday I went for a drive to Palos Verdes with my friends Jack and Alisa to go for a walk on the beach and to see this famous building. The Wayfarers Chapel was built in 1951 and designed by Frank Lloyd Wright’s son Lloyd Wright. It is one of the the most famous examples of what is called ” organic ” architecture. I have wanted to visit this building since I moved to California and it was one of the most unique churches that I have ever seen. It does not disappoint and neither does this beautiful coast line. Marilyn Monroe and Joe Di Maggio were married here and some people say that the grounds around the church are haunted but we did not feel anything just a feeling of peace and wonder at this building and setting. If you are ever near there go and take a moment to enjoy the beauty of this inspirational and spiritual space and building.
