Sistine Chapel- Rome






Once again Trudi's great organising skills saved us heaps of time, she had pre booked a tour of the famous Sistine Chapel and Vatican from Australia and it was an amazing experience to see the centre of the Catholic world. So many incredible pieces of art and sculptures. It was quite an eery time to enter the Sistine Chapel and view the fantastic and famous paintings of Micheal Angelo. If you could imagine a room full of people looking around in awe at the most unbelievable paintings it was surreal until over the loud speaker came the "NO PHOTOS---NO PHOTOS" message in 10 different languages. What an atmosphere killer!!!
I managed to pop off a few discreet picrures anyway.
