Rome - another day in the life of Henry King

By request of mr Buckingham here I am for another blog post. Today was an earlier start as we were off to the Vatican! I headed down to breakfast with my trusty jar of Greek Nutella in hand excited at the prospect at seeing the wonders of the Sistine chapel and others. However that excitement was slightly dulled by the two hour wait to actually get in and being told to wait by an American who believed I was jumping the queue when I was just catching up! Some people are so annoying! But once we got into the Vatican the sights were incredible. The number of statues and paintings all by incredibly famous artists - Bernini Raphael Michaelangelo the list goes on. The highlight for me was the huge last supper tapestry. After having lunch we went to St. Peter's basilica which was absolutely amazing it was the best thing I have seen all trip. It was HUGE. The rest of the day was free time so we went back to the hostel for a rest. In an hour we are going off for dinner.
By the way to mum and dad have a safe flight to London can't wait to see you in two weeks I'm so excited.
