Jin's Religion and Philosophy class took a field trip to the newly constructed Hindu temple in Lilburn today. While they were not allowed to take any photos inside, he was able to take pictures of the outside of the building, which is the largest Hindu temple in the US. Made of sandstone and marble and containing no metal foundation, the Shri Swaminarayan Mandir is quite striking for suburban Atanta, and really shows the diversity of our city.
Here is a great photo he took of the Mandir.
Speaking of field trips, Ben is starting kindergarden on August 11th. We are considering one last weekend getaway before school starts. We were thinking of visiting the Sea Turtle Rescue center on Jekyll Island. Or maybe check out Outer Banks rentals.
