Day 6
... would be! The Sistine Chapel is truly amazing, the only place were photos are not allowed, and is something that must be seen in real life! Breathtaking buildings, painted walls & ceilings and statues centuries old all in one place. A stunning once in a life time visit.
Then we moved on to St Peters of Basilica Church. It is more like a collection of cathedrals. Impressive is an understatement. The largest church in the world it has a 218 metre long naive. ...

What also got me was just how brutal some of these catholic scenes are (check out the photo ...
NO FOR FRY PO-TA-TOS!!!
On Friday, we got up at 7.30, had a shower and then waited for breakfast. It was supposed to start at 8, but as expected, the girl preparing it was 15 minutes late. We each had a slightly dry Italian style croissant (even has some kind of lemon icing on it…) with some butter and jam.
