I was intending to get us to the And Then There was Light show but through a series of wonderfully fortuitous events, we found ourselves with free front and center tickets to Les Stars Chantent Noel in the Basilica last night. It was fantastic!
Not only was the show incredible but it was my first chance to see the basilica from the inside. As an avid fan of Pope John Paul II, it's always a treat for me to go to places that he has visited. The building is gorgeous! I felt kinda guilty staring at all the intricate detailing around me instead of the show- but I honestly just came to see the basilica. The show's lights did make it all pretty cool and dramatic though. And getting to listen to the organ play was amazing!
We took some time after the show to look at some of the other features before heading off. If I had more time, I would have loved to attend a full tour or the light show.
