Ok, finally...I'm Vaticanized.
I got up and waited for 2 hours in the Vatican line...rough...but well. really? worth it. The Vatican museums are fantabulous, so much stuff (a lot of general periodic trash, but some very fine pieces). However, a lot of beautiful sculptures (which are my favorite), and well, once you realize what the Sistine Chapel really entails...magnitude and the work that it must have taken...wow.
Post-Vatican, Vivian (aussie girl I met the night before) and I went down to middle Rome to get some lunch (delicious carbonara and veal), and headed down to the one island in the Tiber, over to the Trastavere and walked back by the Aventine Hill, to the Pyramid (which she hadn't seen and is by a metro). We grabbed the metro, got me a ticket to Venice, some groceries and then chilled back at the rooms. Dinner was amazing, I decided to try Lasagne and Roast Lamb. oh god good. Rome is nice. veeeeery nice.
