No "kid"ding around...

May 25, 2009

This was the most frustrating day our trip by far. Knowing we couldn't leave Rome without seeing the Sistine Chapel we waited the hour required to enter the Vatican museums. And we saw the Sistine Chapel. And that was about it. So packed in with tourists, with barely enough room to move our elbows, the museums were so crowded that we found our tour difficult to enjoy and after a short time we decided our best bet was to make our way to the Sistine Chapel and resolve to come back in the off season to see the rest of the museum. After our Vatican jaunt and a delicious neopolitan pizza lunch, we picked up our car and headed for Florence. Three hours of beautiful Italian countryside, followed by a quick, late dinner and off to bed, exhausted from our travels.

Because it was so crowded, it was difficult to get any high quality pics,
but I couldn't leave without a pic of the goat, I heart him
