Today was a classic Roman day.
Woke up and waited for the bus to take me to the Vatican...and waited...and waited.
Toured around the Vatican museum with a friend of Anne's, and the guy at the ticket desk was so bored out of his mind that he didn't care we were obviously not Italian or EU students, so we got a 5 Euro break on ticket prices.
Walked around the museum, lots of old stuff including the restored Sistine Chapel, which is still great.
Tried to go home, got stuck in traffic because a tour buss couldn't manage the turn.
A big traffic jam developed with lots of angry gestures and horn honking.
the driver of the bus and 3 people stuck in the traffic jam got out of their vehicles, looked at the bus, looked at the car, picked up the car, got back in their cars and drove off.
Thank God for Italians, little cars, and no alarm systems.
