Assisi Diary - Day 30 - Moving Again

Today I moved out of Saint Anthony’s Guest House as 31 Danes with a long-standing reservation were due to arrive.  Since the apartment is not available again until tomorrow, I’m spending tonight at the La Fortezza Hotel.  Here's looking out from the hotel window.
Went to mass this evening at the Basilica of Saint Clare.  There was a nun there last year helping out before and during mass who I remembered because she smiled so much, appearing truly happy about her work.  There she was again this year, still smiling and seeming to enjoy every moment of her existence.  While much of the world is searching for happiness in other places, she seems to have found it living among the Poor Clares, materially poor, but not without a wealth of blessings.

Need to catch up on picture taking.  Here’s a glimpse of the brick sidewalk that extends from Santa Maria degli Angeli to Assisi.
Ciao.
