This morning we toured the Vatican. The immense size of the buildings, sculptures and art is hard to describe and the pictures do not do it justice. Collections from Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Raphael fill the halls. It is overwhelming. We spent four hours here though I feel you could spend at least a week. We toured some of the Vatican's museums as well as St. Peters Square and the Sistine Chapel. Photos were not allowed in the Sistine Chapel and we honored that. Our guide did an excellent job with all the information and prepared us well for the detail of the paintings and the stories behind them.
