We also visited the Vatican Museums. I love this photo of the spiral staircase. I really don't remember much about the art there.

It is interesting that I keep seeing photos online and articles about long lines and how to avoid them. I do not remember any lines back in 1969.
The rest of the day was spent seeing Castel Sant'Angelo, built in the second century. I remember having a picture that looked just like this, but with fewer people.

Here is a lovely view from the castel. The picture of the Tiber and the bridges that I posted on the 14th likely was taken from the bridge above.

This is our last day in Rome. My expenses for the day were $26.22. A good part of that was for this rosary that I purchased for my father. When he passed away, my mother gave it back to me. It is not something I or my sons would ever use so it sits in the safe. The beads are granite or something similar.
