3.00pm- bedtime in Rome

PART 6
As we entered the Vatican we saw many people dressed in funny outfits. It turns out they were the guards for the pope. It was a good thing Gabe wasn't wearing shorts because to get in, you had to have your knees covered. We walked around a big fountain for a while and my mom took some pictures then we headed inside. Everywhere there were little markings and pictures made of glass. We headed down a long hallway where there were a bunch of stone coffins one for each pope. After we were out we went inside a different part of the church where the walls were covered in stained glass and the floor was decorated with swirls and colorful shapes.
