Vatican City then headed home

As I finish up sharing my trip to Europe, I have started making plans to go to Australia.  Its hard to believe that it has been a year already since my last adventure.

I must say a great way of finish up this amazing trip is going to the Vatican. My Aunt and I had purchased our tickets for the museum a head of time to avoid the lines. Highly recommend do this. As we waited for out time to enter the museum, we decided to walk around a bit. We decided to go in to Vatican City. We noticed that there were large crowds forming. Turns out that on Wednesdays that Pope Francis has a papal audience and gives mass.

We decided that you cant come to Vatican City and not see the Pope if he is having mass. There was a few hours before it stat, so we went to the museum.

The last supper painted by Leonardo da Vinci

The tombs were just fantastic to see, such great detail, telling a story.

I snuck of picture of the Sistine Chapel, painted by Michelangelo

 We had seen art by the most famous artist in the world. Donatello, Raphael, Leonardo, Michelangelo ( Wanted to start breaking out in to the Ninja Turtle theme song) and many more.

When we made it back to the court yard, there were thousands of people.

 You can kind of see Pope Francis, His is the one in white

There were huge TV screens, so everyone would be able to see him and the priests.

 I had to get a selfie with Pope Francis, so people would believe that I was there.

 We were able to hear Pope Francis, give prayer in Latin. I didn't understand it, but felt it. Before the mass ended there was singing. People from all over the world singing together. It was quit amazing and beautiful.

Truly blessed to have had that experience.
