7, trying to return from the Piazza Navona after an exciting day of not-shopping, chase and catch a bus terminating at a garage, which after being descended through turns out to be outside St. Peter’s. After emerging and plotting to liberate Caesar’s ashes, a huge park bars our way. Wary of venturing into it after dark, we nevertheless decide to brave the crossing, entering through a found gate. A sign on the fences that needed to be jumped for exit informed that we had just trespassed on private property. While going around the Aurelian Wall blocking our further progress, we discover that the “park” was actually part of the Pontific College. Dumpster diving for discarding Masonic insignia, we return in time to hunt for reservationless dinner for 14 on a Saturday night.

A bar and 8 hours later, a great view of the city and the recent adventure are discovered amid religion and crepes.
