Vatican City

Day two of our Rome trip, we had a tour scheduled of the Vatican City where we were escorted through the Vatican Museum.  We walked through the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica on our own.  At St. Peter's, we went up to the top of the dome where we were able to walk along the inside of the dome.  There were a lot of steps getting up there.  Fortunately, an elevator was available for part of the climb.
