Italy day 5

Today we went back to St. Peters, which is amazing.  When I went to Rome in January in 08, it was far less crowded.  But it was so worth it.  The following pictures show the magnificent interior.






I love seeing soldiers in uniform, these vatican uniforms are soooo bright.   I love that one of them was giving directions.

This is the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi on Piazza Navona
The Pantheon is one of my favorite buildings.  It was originally created to pay homage to 12 roman gods.  It was later converted into a church, this is what saved it from having the marble scavenged.  
I was blessed to get there on a sunny day, because the sun really did shine on one of the relics.  

Love Always,

Meg
