Rosary with the Holy Father - Thursday

One of the least-known and beautiful Papal liturgies is coming up this week. Every year to mark the end of the Marian Month, there is a Rosary Procession through the Vatican Gardens, concluding with prayers and a brief homily from the Holy Father at the Lourdes Grotto. Entrance is by the Archway of the Bells and quite apart from the religious aspect, it's nice to be able to walk around inside the Vatican Gardens. It starts at 8pm and is usually over by about 9pm.

Interesting Exhibition

Habemus Papam
There's an exhibition on these days in the Museum which is located in the Lateran Palace. (Main Entrance: Just to the right of the main facade of the Lateran Basilica).
It's called 'Habemus Papam' and covers the election of Popes from St Peter to Benedict XVI. I haven't been myself yet, but hope to visit shortly.
