more ticket memories

Musei Vaticani:
Vatican Museums. So much! Rafael rooms-the school of Athens in particular. Even a Dali painting! I have pictures of all of it. Wandering around by myself was quite nice.

Teatro Dell' Opera di Roma:
Nabucco. An opera by Verdi used as a political vehicle for Italy. We saw it in the Roman Bath and it was quite impressive!

Prato delle Colonne Stagione 2007:
Momix Ballet. The one modern art piece we saw the whole time. Crazy. It was really abstract. They danced behind a screen to projections and music with lights... hard to explain.

Opera di Santa maria Del Fiore (del Duomo):
Opera actually means works, so this place is a museum of all the original parts of the Duomo. The two best pieces, well how about three... Mary Magdalene by Donatello, the third Pieta by Michaelangelo and the Choir Loft by Donatello.
