The Rome temple will be interesting to follow. With St. Peters and the Capitoline Hill architecture done by the likes of Michaelangelo, I would say the church has quite a challenge ahead of them. I can’t wait to see what they do.

After saving Rome for last, President Monson made a pointed pause after announcing it, with a quizzical or bemused look, and allowed the reaction to build. It was an unspoken comment on the implications of that temple site, and quite funny.

Margaret, it was initially just an audible mild rumbling, just the audience’s initial quiet exclamations of surprise. Pres. Monson looked at the audience with an amused expression at their reaction, and then the audience laughed.

Margaret, I’m pretty sure they were laughing at their initial gasp – when they realized it was so audible.

I was listening to conference on the radio, coming home from a Farmer’s Market, when the new temples were announced, and I heard the laughter. I asked Bruce what people found humorous–if President Monson had made some kind of interesting expression. He said it wasn’t really laughter, just joy. Hmmm. Sounded like laughter to me.
