One of the highlights for me today was the visit to the Catacombs di Domitilla - and with it the opportunity to celebrate Mass in an ancient gathering space for the early Christians.
The tour of the catacombs was also impressive as we learnt that some of the things I thought I had been taught about them at school were in fact exaggerations. But to know that there are well over 100 kms of tunnels and 150,000 people were buried there - many of them much later than the first groups of martyrs - was amazing.
