Last full day in Rome. Biggest task today is to figure out how to get all this stuff into those suitcases.
The Sunday bells at the Vatican are the best. It is clearly a joyful sign. They start ringing at 9:30am and continue for a half hour. I now do something similar for 10minutes prior to the weekly solemn liturgy, much to the annoyance of the parochial vicar.
Today we celebrate Mass in the chapel of the house. Then we went off to the beach where we had a marvelous pranzo. The fish was wonderful.
The rest of the evening was like this: Nap, packing, vespers, packing, dinner, packing. I did not want to go home.
