One of my best memories of Rome is of the Pantheon. I had decided to spend my first evening in the city at Piazza Navona, and stumbled across the Pantheon on my walk there. I was surprised because for some reason I thought it was closer to the Roman ruins.
I not only found it by accident, I entered in the middle of a concert of a children's choir from Bangladesh. There were singing Ave Maria when I walked in and I instantly had chills, it was incredibly powerful and it felt so right in this ancient building. The followed up with a gorgeous version of Amazing Grace.
A short time later, I was in the Piazza Navona and the children's group walked passed me - they were out of choir mode and into kid mode, helping them fit right into the crowd at the Piazza.

Great photos. I went in high school. I'd love to go back!
Definitely on my bucket list, Jamie, and these photographs are wonderful.
Thank you for sharing them here!
I used to teach music to elementary age...there is nothing more angelic than a children's choir that sings well. It can take the breath away-and in such a stunning setting must be more magnificent.
Again, I love seeing these scenes. Rome is so crowded, but so rich with culture. I fear I will never get to Italy, but I sure would love to.
Happy day Jamie. Thanks for sharing these images.
