From Starkville Mississippi to Cergy France

    It’s day 3 in Rome now and there’s still much to see. Started the day off with the usual hostel breakfast of a bread roll, slice of ham, slice of cheese, and coffee. It seems that every hostel I go to they at least have that for breakfast. It’s universal. After breakfast Joe, the other Americans, the German, and I all went into town. Our first stop was The Vatican.

(There it is. The Vatican)

(While waiting to enter, we noticed another Space Invader mosaic. This guy has been everywhere!)

(Some ceiling artwork.)

(Look up!)

(Look down!)

After walking through all that we had to see the Cappella Sistina.

(Be quiet, Don’t fall, and most of all… NO PHOTO!)

(So… the security guards were constantly saying, “No photo!” and “Shh!” That got really annoying… My group and I eventually decided to shush them back. And take a few photos. Unfortunately they all came out blurry.)

(There’s Thomas, the German I told you about earlier.)

That was it for The Vatican. Next up was lunch. Pizza. And it was delicious as always. After that we all decided to go to the Pantheon.

After the Pantheon we all decided to call it a day. Just went back to hostel and chilled with some other people. We ended up meeting some cool German girls and talked into the wee hours of the morning. Lots-o-fun!
