No Work, All Play
... The second church, now closed for renovations, is attached to a monastery. There were windows high up on the right side where the cloistered monks could look down upon the mass because they couldn’t interact with other people.
It wasn’t until after we were in the car, heading to Altavilla Milicia that Giuseppe explained that one of the churches is usually closed and this was the first time he’d ever seen the inside! What an honor to accompany him! ...
