Rome Day One

We got to our apartment in Rome around 1:30 pm, just in time to grab some lunch and head to St Peter's Basilica. Our apartment was 2 blocks away from the Vatican, which made it an easy walk. As I have said before these pictures will not do justice to the beauty, the detail, and the size of these buildings. St. Peter's was so amazing, I didn't know where to start taking pictures because everything was picture worthy

You can kind of see the ceiling which is filled with pictures, and designs.


The Altar where Peter's body is said to be buried under.

This canopy over the alter is 7 stories high.













writing on the walls are quotes from the bible.
