Fighting Irish

Today Eric and I drove to South Bend (not quite an hour away) which is where Notre Dame University is located. Eric had been there before but I was interested in seeing the campus. We ate lunch (after driving around lost for a while) and then ventured to campus. The campus is beautiful and really pretty big. The buildings are so pretty and it made me miss the K-State campus.
Here's the "touch down Jesus" as Eric described it. This building was so tall and you can see it from the football stadium which is just behind us from where we took the picture. It was pretty cool though because the whole picture is done with inlaid marble and other stone.
Here's a picture of the church on campus. It was gorgeous! This picture doesn't do it much justice but I didn't want to take too many and I turned the flash off.
After walking around on campus, we drove to the College Football Hall of Fame, which is in downtown South Bend. When we got there, the guy at the desk told us they were about to close (We had forgotten that the time changes just west of South Bend) so we just looked around the store and outside.
Eric was awfully excited to find this flag outside the hall of fame. I was incredibly disappointed to not find a KSU flag anywhere! Eric said that KSU wasn't good enough to have a flag but I think we just couldn't find it...
