... it is where the Pope visits to place flowers at the statue of the BVM in front of the Spanish Embassy. I’ll make my way in that direction later this afternoon as I would like to make it to evening prayers at the Les Fraternites Monestiques de Jerusalem. I’ll recount that visit on my next blog.

Seems to be working.Tonight we went back to the same restaurant, Osteria Pozzo della Mensa, (Via del Pozzo Mensa, 11/b) which is fast becoming our favourite eating place in Assisi. The chef is Claudio Bellinzani, who has worked in Tuscany and in Santa Cruz in Northern California.
