Italy Day 8

So yes I am late with the blog today!! 

Yesterday we slept in and decided to not go on the walking tour of Ancient Rome since we had a our concert at 8 pm.  The guys did a "walk about" and by the time they returned they were drenched... have I mentiioned it is HOT! 😂 Also the reason the six of us came on the trip was to sing at the concerts for the people.  We have all been to Italy and have seen what they are seeing.  

Here are a few of the pictures they took while they were out with some links

After the guys returned we headed to a little restaurant next to our hotel for lunch. If you are ever in or near the Monti Neighborhood in Rome and it is right next almost to the Grand Hotel Palatino.  We had the most wonderful service and food.

Ham Pizza

Chef Salad

Margherita Pizza

Anchovie Pizzza - wonder who ordered that one?

That was me that ordered a cheeseburger. Those fries were sooooo good. 

Dessert was a Gelato with 3 different flavors very good also. 

After lunch it was time to return to hotel and get ready for the concert.  We arranged a cab to take us to II Gelato di San Crispino. Our Pastor, Dr Drew, recommended to Susan and Mark.

Next we headed off to the church for our rehearsal and then the concert. Along the way I saw this little sign and looked down....people are just not considerate sometimes.

Trevi Fountain was along the way and as you can see there are lots and lots of people everywhere.

Our concert was at the Church of St  Ignatius of Loyola.

The accoustics in the church were wonderful. The crowd were engaged and some sang along with us.  It was a wonderful last concert for us to see all the smiles and engagement.

After the concert it was back to hotel and to bed for us! It was way past my bed time.
