Oh, look, it's a Last Supper (although not the Last Supper):
The photo I took of the facade of Santa Maria Maggiore didn't turn out well. But here's the back entrance. OK, so it's really the facade of the Cappella Colleoni, which now is part of the main church.
We walked up to the Rocca:

And then we had to walk back down, which was a low point of the day. Well, I say it was, but it was Kevin who was pushing the stroller most of the day. I'm pretty sure he would agree.
But overall it was a great little adventure.
