Musei Vaticani Fiasco

Woke up this morning after a knock on our door at 7:30 am with Katy at the door wondering why we didn't come down for breakfast.

Oh let me see.....maybe because I got in only a few hours prior?

The group was ready to go for our scheduled 8:15 am time at the Vatican Museum. Eeks.........I'm thinking there goes 24 Euro's down the drain.

Zoe & I rush to meet the group, but they had already left us behind........AND......they had the group voucher!

Lovely.

Cursing on the subway, we make our way to the spot and see this huge huge line. We got there at 8:30 am...a bit futher delayed due to Zoe not having the right length shorts, so we had to make a pit stop for her to purchase a pair from a conveniently placed booth selling appropriate 'church' clothes.

Wondering how on earth we were going to get in, we suddenly see our group standing in line waving us over. It turns out that the tickets we purchased over the internet had not gone through so we had to wait in line like everyone else that did not have pre-purchased vouchers.

We got in by 10:45 am.

I left at 12:45 pm. .

The place was amazing but I needed a nap.
