Vatican City
29 May 2008
On our first whole day in Rome, as requested, our breakfast was brought in to us at 8am. After that we headed over to Vatican City, specifically to St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Museum. This was my second time to St. Peters and I am still in awe. The architecture alone is elaborate, with the extremely decorative ceiling as well as the small painted domed ceiling over each smaller room of the aisles. What amazes me the most, and always has is everything that is carved out of marble, most of all, the huge pieces of draping fabric carved out of marble and lace fabric on robes. You will see many photos of that type of thing in my photo album.Check out my photo album from St. Peter's here.
