It was a tough loss for Roma (but I personally think they should have started Michael!) We loved the energy of the stadium, the chanting, the popcorn….and we had great seats!!! Thanks for hooking us up, Michael. We hope to see you guys again real soon. Love!
The Capuchin Crypt is a museum located beneath the church of Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini on the Via Veneto near Piazza Barberini in Rome. It contains the skeletal remains of 4,000 bodies.
Bones are nailed to the walls in intricate patterns while others are just piled on top of More bones. Some have been made into light fixtures. Towards the end of the museum is what appears to be a cement heart- the grand niece of Pope Sixtus V supported the Capuchin order and asked to have her heart placed behind a plaque there when she died.
We didn’t find the place very scary- just a bit freaky since some looked like they still had leathery skin intact. One even had fake beard hair glued to his chin.
Emerson took the camera to take photos of a cake and the boys heading outside of the cafe to find a city bus.
Geesh! As soon as you get in to view the chapel, people are shushing at everyone to not speak. Guards are saying ‘no, pictures!’ To me, it takes away from enjoying the overall experience. I tried to take a quick photo of Michelangelo’s most famous section of the fresco “The Creation of Adam” where God and Adam are barely touching fingers, but I didn’t do so well. Too much pressure. The throngs of tourists are steadily pushing you towards the exit the entire time. That being said, I am so happy we got to the see it. It is truly beautiful.
