It was another busy day of orientation for us. Each day of the sabbatical program is filled with conferences and tours. We are all looking forward to next weekend which is wide open for us. Many of the priests in the program use the free weekends to travel throughout Italy. The good thing about Italy is that just about anywhere in Italy is easily accessible by train. I will be traveling with a few of the guys next weekend for 2 days, but we have yet to decide where in Italy we will go. Stay tuned!
A few of us took a few hours to walk around and just experience Rome. Spring is in the air! It has been in the low 60's both yesterday and today with bright sunshine. (Tomorrow's weather forecast is warm and rain.) Here are a few photos from our walk about today.

While we were walking across the Ponte San Angelo, we came across these two swamis. The guy on top is sitting on a pole held in the one hand of the guy on the ground. It looked pretty amazing!
