A Bergamo Day

Bergamo Seminary
Fr John lead us all over Bergamo for lunch, coffee, chocolate, and more importantly, a tour of  Poppa Giovanni's archive foundation! Wonderful tribute to Pope John Roncalli. When we left Fr John gave us all a Poppa Gioviani first level relic, a coin, and blessed holy card!

As we traversed the streets of Bergamo, I savored the Italian fashion sense, families in the piazza, breathtaking churches juxtaposed to each other, small chapels behind small doors, the taste of fresh cappacino, the deliciousness of a Bergamo pasta, cheese, and wine all recommended by Fr John and his heightened pleasure of our savoring dishes he recommended.
