We finally managed to get into St. Peter's Basilica with only 30 minutes wait, although I think Cecilia skipped some of the line... I would never do that! And we even got blessed by the Pope Benedictus while waiting to get through security.... it was worth the wait!
A lot of people would want to see these photo's just to get a flavour of the spectacular nature of this beautiful place, it is worth the time to see it with your own eyes.
Off to Ireland early in the morning! So we have to get our beauty rest.
Enjoy the photo's.
Signing off,

No pictures of the Sistene Chapel.....does that mean you followed orders (for the first time!). Rhonda claims she didn't hear or read the instructions about no cameras.

This is an absolutely gorgeous building. How old is it? Nice job in catching the sun rays through that hole.
