Mark Anthony?!

Day 2 in Rome much better than the first! We stayed in and watched Australia after a heinous trek to our hotel last night. Had some great Italian food at a way fancy place in the hotel--we were unfortunately underdressed... They didn't seem to mind too much, though!

Our view is beautiful--overlooks the Vatican from afar. Even saw some fireworks last night!

Vatican today, including the museum and Sistine Chapel. Everything was so beautiful and interesting! Had a great guide named Mark Anthony. Not even kidding. Totally made it all that much better that he's from Ohio. And knew his stuff. I also appreciated the occasional crack about his name--like when we saw a statue whose hair was modeled after Cleopatra's. Off to more Rome fun! Colloseum, Roman Forum, and Trevi Fountain to name a few items on the agenda for tomorrow!
