\nIt was a gift for us, that came from Brazil, to find this beauty here. <\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Being here at Christmas time is marvelous. This city is beautiful, it doesn't matter what street you are on, everything is beautiful. <\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>So beautiful, we came from Sicily just to see it. <\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>It's my first time here in Italy, so I'm really enjoying being here during Christmas time. It's really nice to see all the lights across the city and all the Christmas decorations. <\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>I think it's beautiful, it's made of wood and from what I've been told it is hand-carved which is incredible to me, and the detail is amazing. It's beautiful.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nThe tree is gorgeous. Also from what we have heard, it's only natural that it is placed here, that the ornaments were made by people in a psychiatric center and the elderly, that also caught my attention. <\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Yes, it's really really pretty. I love all the lights and all the different colors on it. It's really nice Christmas spirit here in the Vatican City.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nThat's why we came to Italy, because Brazil had a very difficult time and we came here to the Vatican to give thanks.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nIt's a beautiful thing that we have rediscovered, something that maybe we lost, that we may not have realized before, but now we know the importance of breathing freely.<\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>It's really nice, like being reborn, living again. Right Maria? Yes, say it! Yes, I feel great, and my aunt was able to come from Sicily.<\/em><\/p>\n
