The second half of our Italian adventure was full of good times with some great old friends, Papa Francesco, and a cupola climb.
It was such a pleasant day, they moved the papal audience to St. Peter's Square.
waiting for Papa Francesco to make an appearance
There he is!
His message for the day dealt with the notion of the resurrection of the body...the notion of the glorified body
the entrance to the Papal Apartment
you know, a remembrance of Baptism...

The cupola view
a close up (see those windows? that's where you end up on a cupola climb, but on the outside)
and the Holy Spirit resides there

The pits that were under the floor, (the pits of despair?)
Viola the Contemplative
The Christainized Colesseum
The Palatine
