We did not plan in advance to visit Rome on Easter Sunday – it just happened. We bought our return airfare & it made sense to be in Rome. So we did not try to score tickets to any of the big papal events. Which turned out great. We had yummy chocolate croissants & cappuccino at a favorite spot. Met an interesting German woman winding up her vaca. Wandered over to our selected church – a fabulous French cathedral with amazing organ & choir music. And. On the way visited Pantheon. Later we wandered St Peter’s square. Here are our photos of the day.















Ask me about the kind nun we met on the bus!
