EARLIER IN THE WEEK WE VISITED THE “SCAVI” – the excavations that took place under St. Peter’s to discover if the true burial place of St. Peter was directly under the main altar as tradition has taught. The tour is one of the most interesting tours I have ever been on, concluding with a view of St. Peter’s bones! So, we can say that we have seen the bones of St. Peter, and we have met “Peter” in the person of Benedict XVI.
