On Sunday the Lopezjoneses headed north into the mountains to Trento.
They were visiting Papa's cousin Ermanno and his girlfriend Lisa. They got to walk around the city of Trento, famous for it's university and arts.
Their first stop was to go underground. The Spazio Archeologico Soterraneo SASS.
Roman Ruins. It is an underground museum, right in the center of town, recreating a roman city complete with squares, a street, homes, and gardens.
It was a very special thing to see.
Next, after gelato,
Museo Castello di Buonconsiglio. They visited the city's spectacular castle built in the 13th century.
Lots of galleries to walk through, but the views of Trento from the top were spectacular.
This is where everyone (almost everyone) took a brief moment to remove their masks for a picture.
They even got to see a special tour of the castle towers, which in itself was neat because they literally walked through the castle walls from one end to the other.
One had to pay close attention to things. Like this imagery of a person being beheaded.
Afterwards they walked through the city once more, with a stop at a local drinking fountain.
The twins had the chance to run around a little in a local park. Before heading back home they stopped once more for a drink at Ermanno and Lisa's place - because all eateries close at 6pm in all of Italy, before saying goodbye.
Thankyou for the peaceful joy of this visit.
