Last week was Palm Sunday and I went to Catholic Mass in the Pantheon. It was nice to sit and look around without a lot of tourists. Since then we have barely been able to move Rome is so crowded. Easter is a bigger deal than Christmas. Besides our apartment, there is a lot of energy. Our apartment has turned into a nap zone. Paul and I trade off playing with William while the other one sleeps. But even William took a 2.5 hour nap yesterday. It was heaven.

Playing in the park at the Villa Doria Pamphilji on Sunday afternoon.

Stopping to smell the flowers at Campo di Fiori. This market is two blocks from our house. We come here every day.

Our family in front of Santa Maria Maggiore. You can earn an indulgence by pilgrimaging to this church if you are Catholic.

St. Peter's square on Easter Sunday. Pope Benedict just finished the outdoor mass. What a beautiful day!
