I absolutely cannot stand lines! And guess what I did on my last day in Rome? Stood in a line for FOUR hours. I'm not bitter at all. I did all that waiting for the Vatican Museum. It was kind of worth it, I just really would've liked not to wait in that extremely long line. My favorite part of the museum was the Sistine chapel. It was amazing to see the Michelangelo paintings! They were so intricate! It was beautiful! After the museum we went around the city looking at a lot of the cathedrals in the city! It was a lot of fun! My favorite was Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri.
This was a cathedral designed by Michelangelo and he used the layout of the Roman baths. It was a gorgeous cathedral! The roman architecture never ceases to amaze me!
Sometimes I wonder if in 2000 years down the road we have landmarks that people will be amazed by or as well preserved as the roman architecture has been. Will people even care about what we've left behind?
