Rome - The Vatican Museums & The Sistine Chapel

Vatican City today! As we made our way through its grand halls you quickly lose your breath with all that greets your eyes...classical renaissance art, the grandeur of its majestic architecture and all the history keeps one mesmerized! This truly is a special place. Our walk took us through The Gallery of the Tapestries and then into the Gallery of the Geographical Maps before arriving into the famous Sistine Chapel with its magnificent fresco of the Last Judgement by Michelangelo.

Rome - Caput mundi



As soon as we checked into our hotel the thrill of being in the "Eternal City" took hold of us! Walking down centuries old cobblestone streets, we browsed past shops and galleries - you truly cannot help but be in constant awe with the history and poise that is Rome.

Our first stop: Fontana di Trevi (Trevi Fountain)
Completed by Nicola Salvi in 1762, the central figure of the fountain is Neptune, god of the sea. He is riding a chariot in the shape of a shell, pulled by two sea horses. Each sea horse is guided by a Triton. One of the horses is calm and obedient, the other one restive. They symbolize the fluctuating moods of the sea. Trevi refers to three roads that converged here.

Legend has it you will return to Rome if you throw a coin into the water. You should toss it over your shoulder with your back to the fountain. I sincerly do hope that our paths find us back here in Rome!
