Catholic Capitol of the World

            It was another amazing day in Europe.  We spent most of the day at The Vatican.  Technically it was seventh country we went to, but I won’t count it.  I loved seeing all the art, sculptures, Sistine Chapel and the view of Rome from the top of St. Peter’s Basilica.  Everyday on this trip is so ridiculous.  We’re really lucky girls!!


Highlight:

-Eating the world’s best gelato at The Old Bridge.  Several friends recommend it and it was worth the long line.  We were all in heaven.

-Seeing Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel in person.  I can't believe the talent he had to create such detailed frescos.  I'm so glad we got to see it.  

-At night we sat around talking, dancing, and messing around.  These girls are so fun and I love them all!

Lowlight:

-Getting shoved and pushed around by all the short, little tourist.  Honestly, I could totally take them all.  When they want a good picture they can get really inconsiderate.  

Distance walked:
9.21 miles 
Spanish Steps.  This was taken by a
German guy that couldn't speak English.
He was so confused when we asked him to
take the picture, but he got the idea.  




The view was worth all the narrow stars.  



Michelangelo did it again. It's such an  amazing sculpture.
Best gelato ever
Rome!
