Today, we continued our adventure in Rome. We stood on Holy ground today.Early this morning, we traveled into the Vatican City.

Remember how a few days ago, I woke up to a rainy just-wanna-stay-in-bed-in-my-pjs-all-day day? Well, today was another one of those days, only this time I had to get up.
