How often was it used?<br /><br />At first I thought you were off to Venice, with the ship being the Doge's barge for the ceremonial "wedding" of the City to the Sea, but Cardinal Siri and Mgr Marini gave it away as Genoa. And of course the ship is flying the Cross of St George, ancient symbol of Genoa (and borrowed by others...)<br /><br />Hope you had a good time out there.Richardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-77330146383558452522009-10-23T17:37:06.186+01:002009-10-23T17:37:06.186+01:00Father:

Can't see the one of Luciani very clearly - not sure whether he's there as pope or patriarch of Venice. If latter, trick photo to make you think the ship is in Venice?! Was the ship made for a film or is it some Genoese celebration?<br /><br />I spent a few hours in Genoa once before boarding the ferry to Barcelona. Don't think it runs any more - Cangeru line!<br /><br />Have a great trip, Father!Deliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01383433319373651830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-75083119241487398292009-10-19T07:38:58.516+01:002009-10-19T07:38:58.516+01:00I'm guessing somewhere around St. PetersI'm guessing somewhere around St. PetersJoe of St. Thérèsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506671882770822003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-1718736981218631422009-10-19T06:56:41.226+01:002009-10-19T06:56:41.226+01:00I have no idea about most of them but am especiall...I have no idea about most of them but am especially curious about the first.
