This is on of the many water fountains found all over the property of the Mother House. They are very popular with the birds. They like to sit below them and try to catch drips of water as they fall.
This is Casa Delasalle where I am staying. It is located on the back of the property. The pink building to the right is a big controversy. The brothers sold that property to a developer to build housing for low income people. The man was running some sort of scam and is now in prison. The building was never finished and is a eye sore for all of Rome...or so it is said by the Mayor of Rome.
Tonight's dinner was rissoto. It was very good. I didn't leave the property today. We worked through our afternoon break.
I had lunch with members of the Phillipines delegation, dinner with the French delegation and a cigarette break with the Palestinian delegation. Our translator does a good job, but of course everything is a little behind. And I get tired of wearing the headphones. At my work table today English, Spanish, Italian, Phillipino were spoken.
Tomorrow promises to be a good day. Br. Gerard Rummery is meeting with us. He's kind of the rock star of Lasallian teaching. He's an elderly Austrailian brother who is the narrator of a video that I use for teacher training.
