To The Vatican


Another solid day of hiking through Rome. I started off with heading about 30minute walk north to the Olympic statium and with great disappointment it wasn't open the the public.... Soooo gay but I took the chance on the way back to the centre of Rome the check out some stuff I otherwise might not have seen.
 When I eventually made it back to the city centre I decided to make it rain a little and truly enjoy the authentic Italian dining experience. 
 Feeling well and truly induced in food coma I pushed on and thought of what to do next. I had heard about a castle called "st angelo" but wasn't sure if it would be open to the public. When I got there however it exceeded all expectations. 
 
 Then at the top.
Strolling on the way back to the train station I went through the Vatican City and realised that there was no line to get in so I checked that shit out.
 
 Royal guard keeping it real.
