Travel opportunity...

The Chinese New Year is celebrated at various venues throughout London on
Jan 22.

There will be a 'Long Night of Museums' in Berlin on Jan 29.
The Vatican is to restore Michaelangelo's neglected last frescoes, which
have been hidden from public view for 450 years in a private papal chapel
next to the Sistine Chapel. The decision to restore 'The Crucifixion of St.
Peter' and 'The Conversion of St. Paul' and put them on show comes ten
years after the Sistine Chapel was restored. Painted between 1542 and 1550,
they were commissioned by Pope Paul III (1534 - 49) to decorate the chapel
of the Sacraments, later renamed the Pauline Chapel. It is normally
reserved for the exclusive use of the Pope.
