Well, it's Good Friday today, and it reminds me of being in Rome last year. I met up with my friend Alan, who is an authority on St. Peter's Basilica, partly because he developed this web site.

Before I left for Italy, I had looked at this web site, browsing through various pictures and reading through the text. But, I was not prepared for how huge and yet also intricate, the largest church in the world really is. Some of the greatest artists in the world were involved in various pieces of its construction, including Bernini and Michelangelo.

So, if you are interested in Rome, the Roman Catholic Church, or maybe just Art, you should take a look at this web site. And if you ever get to Italy, make sure you stop by and see St. Peter’s Basilica. It’s one of those places that you just have to visit!
