And don't forget the big pine cone (symbol of welcome), from which the Pine Cone Courtyard (which also has the big round world sculpture) takes its name. I took these three photos while sitting, eating cannoli (The cannoli shells were lined inside with chocolate.), and drinking white wine and fizzy water. While I was looking at the world sculpture, several big kids stepped inside the chain and made it spin! How many times have I looked at that sculpture and not known it spins? (When I was done eating and drinking I made it spin myself. It's really heavy, which is why it took three big teenagers to really make it move.) So, picture me sitting, looking straight ahead at the world and if I turned 90 degrees to my right, there was the pine cone. The dome in the background of the "world" photos is St. Peter's dome.
