This afternoon the group headed in many different directions and I struck out on my own. I had a multi-site pass good for several churches and I decided to head for the nearest one. I headed down an alley from the main square and hit a dead end. I turned around and headed another way. I was hungry and was keeping my eyes open for something/somewhere to eat. I came across a "carry out" pasta place. Lots of character! It had several signs taped to the overhead menu stating "no photos of the menu please". I thought that was weird, then I realized one of their dishes was titled "Viagra". Not sure if that was a reference to the pharmaseudical or is some Italian word, but I'm sure it was the reason that their menu was the target of photos. I got some pasta and ate as I continued to wander. (There were no appropriate pic-nic spots around, with or without signs prohibiting them).
Alfredo with sweet peppers and eggplant to-go.
I went another way and eventually ended up in a square that I could find on my map. I people-watched for a while, and realized that I had missed my church by a ways, but there were two more nearby. I found both, they were closed.
Church #3 was a success. Church #4 as well.
Santa Mara dei Miracoli
Square where San Giovanni e Paolo church is.
I was close to the main waterway around the islands and decided I'd take a quick hop over to the cemetary island nearby.
