So beautiful. Lots of people in the lower area, but so many little alcoves and chapels where you can pray quietly if you want. The only thing that was a little disappointing was the situation with the Sacrament of Penance. I had hoped to go to Confession there. It was scheduled from 10-12, and I got there at 11. By 11:45, the line had hardly moved. Happy to see so many people receiving the Sacrament. Sad that I didn't have the time to wait for my chance.
