So with some spare time waiting for the girls to finish up in an internet cafe I decided to give you all an update. By the way, why isn't coffee served in an internet CAFE. . .why use the word cafe. . .
I moved out of my room Friday morning and spent the day with Sarah before we left for the airport. We go to the airport around midnight and slept there. ..or tried to. . .let's just say it was interesting. But at 430 a.m. we could check in so we did and our flight departed just after 6.
Upon our arrival, we were motioned through passport checks, which means no stamp for me. Strange. . . We then caught a bus to a metro stop and hoped on to the stop which would lead us to our first hostel. It was basically the spare rooms of a woman's apartment but was still cute.
Our first stop was the Vatican where we stood in line for about 3 hours to get inside because we wanted to see the Sistine Chapel. We made it just in time for the last entry: 4 p.m. So worth it! My highlights were: the Sistine Chapel (Adam and Eve and Giving the Keys to St. Peter), School of Athens, and these paintings that appeared to be 3 dimensional but weren't which were on the walls leading around the museum. . .
Time's up. . . Ill try to update again!
