Click on any of the little pictures to see it at normal size. Click on the '=0=' after the picture to see it in giant size (about 2 minutes to download on dialup connection and larger than screen size). This could be useful if you wanted to really look at one part of the picture or to make a print.

Saint Peter's Basilica was quite large and everywhere you looked there were beautiful works of art. I didn't want to use up all the diskettes I brought at one place, but Nikki's camera had lots of space. She took these pictures there.	=0=

These are some more pictures that Nikki took at Saint Peter's Basilica. Here is a picture of Jay, too. We saw a few of the Swiss guards who guard the Vatican City (below). From the Vatican City we headed off on a walking tour to see the two places that Nikki really wanted to visit. Below is a picture Nikki took of an American Steak House. Somehow those didn't have the same appeal to us as pizza, but then I guess they are a better representation of America than MacDonald's which we also saw a lot of.	=0=

We had a good street map of the center of Roma and headed off to see stuff that was along the way. Above are pictures of the columns of St. Michael's Square (looks more like a circle to many). Shown here is one of the small buses that went along the narrow streets that are most common in Rome. Below is picture of the Fiume Tevere (river through Rome). On the other side of the river the streets got really narrow (too narrow for even the small buses).	=0=
