Wednesday we had tickets to the Papal Audience. Pope Francis holds an audience every Wednesday morning. It is in St Peter's Square. The Pope comes out on his Popemobile and makes 2 laps before going up on stage. There was a reading by a Cardinal in Italian and the Pope did a benediction in Italian. Then 5 other Cardinals translated into English, Spanish, German, French and I think Latin. It was so cool to be a part of it
After lunch we visited the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel and St Peter's Basilica. Unfortunately you can't take pictures in the Sistine Chapel.
Thursday we fly back to Philadelphia.
