Here we are, still in Rome and the heat is blistering. 33 today, how much more can a koala bare? Today went to the Vatican Museum, which houses the Sistine Chapel. Thought we'd beat the crowds and go early, not, still packed solid at 8.30am. On with the show. Tomorrow we will look at going to the ancient Rome Harbour Osteo Antico. We had thought about doing Pompei but it takes ages to get there apparently, and there is no shade and few facilities. Bye all ;-)
