Early start again and then off to do the Vatican Rag.
Queue to enter the Vatican Museum in the off season!
We meet our guide Simone and manage to avoid the riff-raff.
Most normal people would take years to absorb all that is in the Vatican Museum but we can take it all in, in a mere 3 hours.
Laocoon feeling pretty snakey
Louie and Arabella for Ella
Apollo minus wedding tackle
Cherubs for Ella
This is what happens if you are caught taking photos in the Sistine Chapel
We leave the Sistine Chapel via the back passage and emerge into St Peter's, the largest church in the world designed by Michalangelo and decorated by Bernini.
Mrs Christ and the boy

How good is the boy Bernini
All mosaics
Yep, its that Bernini again
We then admire the structure from outside
Hey Ludwig, how much for one of those fancy pocket knives?
and then admire our lunch.
We stroll around the area, indulge in some very fine gelato and finish the day off with some retail therapy.
To all my thousands of loyal followers, I thank you and have a very nice New Year!!!
