Ciao again! Today is our last day in Rome. We have LOVED it! Yesterday we spent the whole day in the Vatican City. We visited the Vatican Museum which had SO MUCH to soak in, most importantly the Sistene Chapel! It was more than beautiful and very impressive. We really enjoyed looking at every detail and following each different biblical scene. It was wonderful. We stayed in there almost an hour just staring at the ceiling. Afterward, we had some lunch and then headed to visit St. Peter's Church inside the Vatican. It was HUGE and so ornate and beautiful. The walls were covered in fresco paitings or carved stone scenes. This church is where its believed that Peter is buried so we got to see his tomb which was cool. When we walked in the section with the tomb, we were told that there was a Mass service in a few minutes, so we joined in! We were both excited to experience that and now we can say that our first mass was in St. Peter's church in Rome! How cool is that! It was a great day but exhausting, so today we stayed at the campground and just chilled by the pool all day. It was very relaxing and fun. Tomorrow we head to Naples and the Amalfi Coast. Thanks for all your continued prayers. We're having a blast! God is good!
Love,
Tyler and Carmel
