I would still buy charms when I went places, but only for my own charm bracelet. While at the Vatican a few years ago, I couldn’t help myself and bought about a billion charms with different Catholic symbols on them. Something about buying charms from an actual nun at the Vatican was very, very cool. That year for Christmas everybody got a charm.

Since it was so crowded, they only let certain people sit on the benches. I had to stand in the back since I'm not Catholic and wouldn't be taking communion. There were so many people there that they had to ask some of us to leave because they were breaking fire code. I stayed for the first half and then left so others could come in. It was neat, but way uncomfortable standing shoulder to shoulder for so long. I went to Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve once at the Catherdal of the Madeleine.

In our Missals inside the front cover is a nice explaination of why this is and I am sure it is explained on the 'net in one of the many Cahtolic websites. I am happy that you enjoyed the Mass so much. It is the traditions and the "extras" such as kneeling, and making the sign of the cross, that I enjoy the most about Mass and our religion.

I actually don't think you are supposed to take communion unless you are baptized under their religion, but I might be wrong (I didn't feel comfortable doing it anyway). Once, I was at a wedding of Edgar's friends and it was in a Catholic church and it was a bilingual English/Spanish wedding. It was so cool.
