When in Rome...

First off, I would just like to mention that the post I just posted before this was supposed to be posted yesterday and for whatever reason didn't upload. :( Sorry!

Rome is magnificent. That's all I can say. Today I had the great honor of going to Vatican City. We first saw the museum which included the Sistine Chapel (Capella Sistina) which is more amazing than you can imagine.  I sadly was not allowed to take any pictures, but I did take a couple of the museum. This is just one: 
It really shows how incredible the detail is in the art here. I was in awe. We also went to the St. Peter's Basilica which was also an incredible site...
Look at that detail!!!
We got to see the legendary Pietá inside the chapel...
After resting a bit at home, we stopped by the Spanish Steps in the evening. It was quite a sight. 
(Even though it was under construction. Tomorrow I get to explore Rome some more and get some shopping done. In less than a week I'll be back in the States! Although I will miss this place a ton I am so excited to see all my friends and family again. :) I miss you all.
