Rome - Day 2

I have to say this has been the best day in Italy thus far. We did so much! I was amazed by everything we saw and did. It was a great day, but we still have 14 more days to make this trip a trip of a lifetime!

Yesterday was our first day in Italy and it was exausting for most of us. I think some of us went around maybe 20 hours without sleep. This had been the longest time I have gone without sleeping. It was tough!

Today was awesome! We started off the day by visiting the Vatican. We went to the Vatican museum, Sistine Capel, Saint Peter's Basillica, a Glatiator school, (it was so much fun!) Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, and did so much more stuff. It's amazing what we saw. 

Living in the small town of Valentine and at the Coal Mine Ranch for most of the summer, this has been a great experience so far! So many people have told me how amazing Italy is and I have to say it is. It takes some time adjusting to the time and changes, but it is fantastic! 

Tomorrow we are going to the Pope's public audience at the Vatican. There are supposed to be between100,000 to 200,000 people at St. Peter's Square. It is also our last night in Rome so we plan to wonder around the city after dark to see the beauty of it at night!
