Holy toilet paper

I drank too much water in the morning which caused me to have to use the potty at the church right after the ceremony. I was led to the "backstage" area of this historical Vicenza church and I felt like I was in a scene of "Da Vinci Code." Then I pushed an unmarked door (or as I'd like to think, secret door) to reveal a simple, dingy bathroom with a squat toilet, just like the public bathrooms in China. I was so mesmerized by my surroundings and was honored to pee in the same toilet as other much more, holier people, I decided to keep a piece of the toilet paper. Strange? Maybe. But listen, how many times will I get to go a secret church bathroom in Italy again? Don't judge.
