Italy, Day 3

And so we continued on our quest. Fewer pictures today, since the Sistine Chapel and Vatican Museum were less photo-friendly, but still cut-tagging our adventures around the Vatican Museum and after....

i was lucky? i guess in that i got to the Vatican in my young and rather fervently agnostic days... in i think March? april maybe?
it was cold, dreary, and blessedly uncrowded.

of course i had no tour guide.... and a lot of the city had "scaffolding disease" but i would have FREAKED at the crowds you discuss.

My family went on vacation there when I was twelve or so -- before the restoration improvements (*cough*) were made to the Sistine Chapel. I found this version pleasant to mouse around; I assume all of the madding crowds have been photoshopped out:

Sorry it started out so stressfully but glad it turned out to be a good day.
