Today was…what…Crypto Balbi. Then to S. Susanna. (Please be proud that I have figured out the bus system enough so that I can take the bus from one place to another like this. There are many things I’ve not figured out, but I’m finally getting the hang of this issue). Then, with no particular purpose, down the Quirinale, past S. Andrea di Quirinale<\/a>, which was closed, not just because it was after noon, but because, the sign said, they were doing some work, and San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane<\/a>, which was closed because it was after noon. (most of the Roman churches except for the basilicas are closed from around noon to 3 or 4. In the case of S. Constanza and S. Agnes, I have no idea why, since no one seemed to be watching them when they were open, anyway).
\nThen down to the Baths of Diocletian (excellent museum, included in the very reasonable 7 Euro ticket paid for the Crypto Balbi, also superb and really interesting – and as necessary as S. Clemente to get a feel for the layers of Rome. Calling Cranky Prof!) , and to the church of Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri. <\/a>And then on the bus, caught nearby at the Termini, out to the other two churches.
\nNow I’m going to hit a Talvo Caldi I saw up the street, I think, then try to see if S. Cecilia is open and then to S. Maria in Trestavere for Vespers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Amy has written columns for Our Sunday Visitor and Catholic News Service at times over the past twenty years. Her articles have been published in venues ranging from Our Sunday Visitor to the New York Times to Commonweal. She has written 17 books. 18, if you included the as yet tragically unpublished novel.
