Silly me. I did enjoy fabulous views from above the city, standing outside the dome. The Pantheon is pretty, but somehow lacked the emotional depth for me that I normally feel in beautiful places. The pendulum is great. Is it that dry science overcame the original passion of religion that built the Pantheon? Ooh, that could start a fight.

And their faces show so much anger...<BR/>But the real cause for my laughter is that when I saw the statue I remember that, as a child, I acted in a school play. The play was about the National Convention, and I played Robespierre! The not-so-funny thing is that I had to use those pants and pantyhoses!!! (actually called culotte et bas de soie).Edulabbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13276657218190831388noreply@blogger.com
