One week from today...
 

I will see the Sistine Chapel. Can NOT wrap my brain around that. :D

Oh, I am so jealous. It truly is a sight to see! Ignore the crowds and look up. :)

have a great trip!

Just got my emailed confirmation of my Sistine Chapel tour for April. Yay!

Enjoy your trip! I can't wait to get over there!

Thanks, this will be my first trip to Italy. Went to Great Britain 10 years ago, that was my only other trip to Europe.

Hi

Have a great trip :d My wife and I went to Rome a couple of years back and it was a great experience. Maybe you can find some useful info in my trip report with pictures and links: http://gardkarlsen.com/rome_italy.htm . Hope this can help you in your planning. Get in touch if you have any questions.

Regards
Gard

Good for you! Have a wonderful time and come back to tell us about it.

Remember to bring binoculars and enjoy!

If you want the full Sistine experience, eat a sardine sandwich washed down with a bottle of coke while your inside the chapel.
