With the forecast calling for showers, it seemed like the perfect day to tour St. Peter's and the Vatican Museum. The line only took 45 minutes to go through security for St. Peter's and it went quickly as we stood outside and did a lot of people-watching. St. Peter's is truly overwhelming and we were awestruck with the magnitude and beauty of the church. But the fun part was climbing the 310 steps to the cupola from where we were treated to magnificent views of Rome. After lunch at a recommended restaurant from a CDA friend (thanks, Paula), we decided we were too tired to do the museum and just came back to the house and watched the worst of the "Raiders" trilogy! But we agreed to tell everyone we had toured the museum!
