We woke up nice and early this morning to meet with our guide Giovonni (John). We first went to see Saint Peter in Chains, the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, Roman Ruins, The Pantheon, we saw the path that connects the Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain. After lunch we traveled to Vatican City. This tour was simply AMAZING. Saint Peter's Basillica was breathtaking. We saw the Vatican Museum, some past Pope's tombs, the most recent Pope's tomb, and we got a peek at where Saint Peter is actually buried. The area isn't available to go and see, but we could see through the glass that guards it. There were some Swiss Guards outside of the Basillica that are responsible for being the Pope's bodyguard. More to come soon!
