You're going to see Moses while in Rome, right? RIGHT? David's nice. But Moses...
San Pietro in Vincoli. It's a few blocks north of the Colosseum, tucked into a tiny square off Via Eudossiana. While every other monument in the city was packed with people there were maybe 10 others in this basilica with us, viewing the most stunning work of sculpture I have ever seen.

I am forever going to be associated with a place I never visit. Le sigh.

Seriously though, I am really excited about your trip and your posts. I just wish you could post every day!

Hey, I thought you were serious.

And LSPE, I agree with GD. Please, if you can... see Moses.
I may never see either in person, but would pick Moses over David.

I cant wait to view the "Incomparably Large Collection of Digital Photos" hopefully with some personal narration!
