I had the experience of a lifetime last year: I was in Rome on Good Friday for La Via Crucis, The Way Of The Cross. I was not in the main area but close enough to get these photos, and they also show how close the people were to each other. Glad I wasn’t one of them in that crowd! I had my own small throng across the street and looking from the walkway above. As crazy as it was, I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything…
