Still Planning

Dr. Hartnett, Mr. O'Donnell, Ms. McCann and I continue to work on the details of the itinerary, including who will talk where and where we'll eat. Here's the working itinerary:

March 3 - Depart Boston
March 4 - Arrive Rome and go on a walk to see major monuments, ending with the Capitoline Museum and dinner
March 5 - The Forum, Palatine and Colosseum
March 6 - Imperial and Augustan monuments before lunch and a church tour after
March 7 - The Vatican and dinner in Trastevere
March 8 - Ostia and an afternoon preparing for the trip to Athens
March 9 - Arrive in Athens about noon and walk through the city for orientation
March 10 - The Acropolis
March 11 - Museums and monuments
March 12 - Delphi
March 13 - Day-cruise to three islands
March 14 - Return to Boston

We've made a few changes, including a longer visit to the Vatican. Fr. LaMacchia (who will be joining us for his first trip to Rome) has arranged tickets for a Papal Audience at the Papal Audience Hall Wednesday morning.

Expect an email from Dr. Hartnett soon, including an 800 number you can use to reach us in Rome and Athens.
