Cristo de Rosarito....
Took some pic's a couple of months ago...I'd sure hate to own a casa BELOW that statute! It is soooo Big, that it's downright SPOOKY to view it from
the road below...kinda gives one the creeps! It just doesn't look all that secure to me! We heard that the artist took years to plan and erect the
statue, then died soon after? Anyone know the real story?
