THE VATICAN

On Easter Monday we went to the Vatican. This is St. Peter's Basilica.

The Swiss Guards guard the Vatican.

Inside St. Peters

The entrance to the Vatican Museums, including the Sistine Chapel. This was amazing. No pictures are allowed inside the Sistine chapel though.

More of the ceiling. The artists had painted this in a 3-d technique. It really looked more like a sculpture than a flat painting.
