Well, what do you know?
We didn't just go sight-seeing the whole time.  To the right, the guys sings at the Chiesa del Gesu.  Below left, Weathers plays a sick flute on the same night.  Below right, Megs and Stolf hug in front of the alter at St. Peter's after singing an unforgettable mass.
Above:  Manny and I get into the prayerful state necesary for singing a mass at the capital of the world.  Left:  Tenors and altos before Ascension Thursday mass.  Below:  The whole choir after the mass.
WE SANG FOR THE POPE!!! 
And I think he liked us.  That's right, we got to sing for John Paul II at a papal audience.  This photo was taken as the Holy Father was exiting the audience.  I seriously could have reached out and high-fived him (but that would have been in poor taste).
Our last meal in Rome was a memorable one....
