Thursday.

Got into the Vatican museum and it was worth the wait. Only complaint half a day was nowhere near enough to skim it. Some of the painings blew me away. The map room was stunning. The sistine chapel was dimly lit but awe inspiring none the less. The carriage room waqs shut so were a a lot od display cupboards by the time we were hurried out. Top musuem the egyptian section was outstanding.
Got the metro to spagna where we had a panini in a caff followed by a delicious gelato. The sun was nice I sat and people watched as Jean shopped. Back to republica drink and bog stop in ronald mcd's. Got a a grauniad and away home. In the pm went across the road to the restaurant golden grapes. Pricey gaff. I did mussels and clams jean did sliced prawn. Jean had some beef and I did a delicious baked lamb (with complimentary kidney and liver attached). Jean had a lemon sobet with lemon wodka and I had a neapolitan tart. It tasted a bit like toilet duck smells. Pricey meal and so back home.
