We covered a lot on the afternoon of Day 3, Friday. We spent a lot of it at the Vatican, but when we came out of St. Peter's, I was unable to convince the Swiss Guards that the guys were very dangerour characters, so I guess I will be stuck with them for another week!
We did get a nice photo of us with St. Peter's Square behind us. I am still not certain why it is called a square when it is mostly round. Do not they teach Geometry over here?
The Spanish Steps were crowded, but make a pretty picture. I was unable to round the guys up for a photo at the Trevi Fountain, because first they were eating gelato, then they were diving for coins! It was a pretty good walking tour just before dinner, then we had dinner in a Scottish pub where they were showing the next to last game of the European Football cup championships.
While we were atop the Spanish Steps, Wieland and I were "cussing ad discussing" which roof top apartment we would rather have. Walking back to the hotel, he saw this one and decided it might work, when he moves to Rome! Chao!
