Goodbye Roma!




I am leaving Rome within the next couple of hours. Here are some pictures from our final day--well, kind of. We went to the Vatican City museum on Thursday and the catacombs on Friday, but these pictures are from the museum.


I will post a longer reflection of my pilgrimage to Roma when I am in London and can have time to debrief. It was a long and arduous course, but well worth it. I don't think I have ever learned so much in an educational course. I was really stretched outside of my personal comfort level as well as my philosophical and theological comfort zones. I am forever grateful for this opportunity.


Some highlights of the Vatican Museum (not pictured):

-Sistine Chapel

-Rafael's rooms (School of Athens)

-Egyptian Art collection


Pictured:

-A collection of busts (kind of creepy, ya?)

-A long, beautiful hallway

-Crazy staircase


Til' London!


Love you all!


Alex
