... I’ve left Paul to finish out the retreat today and tomorrow as I make my way to Rome. I’ve said my good-byes and am ready to re-enter the buzz and energy that is the Eternal City. Over the years we’ve enjoyed exploring new hotels in new parts of the city. Today, I am going to a hotel close to what I think may well be my most favorite structure in all of Rome—the Pantheon.
