No matter how you slice it, a visit to Vatican City is going to take up a big part of the day.   Here are my top tips for visiting:

  • Take the #40 or #64 bus to Vatican City
  • Make sure the museum is open on the day of the planned visit (see:  http://mv.vatican.va/3_EN/pages/z-Info/MV_Info_Orari.html )
  • Wear appropriate clothing.  No short shorts/skirts and no bare arms
  • Don't go on a day where admission is free - the crowds will be overwhelming
  • Before visiting Vatican City, tour Hadrian's Tomb (very close by) in the morning for the spectacular views
  • If not doing a guided tour with an appointment, the later in the afternoon you go, the smaller the crowds will be.  In the morning, the line can be hundreds of people long, in the late afternoon, you might be able to walk right in with no line at all
  • If not doing a guided tour with an appointement (see http://mv.vatican.va/3_EN/pages/z-Info/MV_Info_Servizi_Visite.html ) do the audio tour.
  • Photos are permitted in the museum, but not in the Sistine Chapel.
  • The 2-3 hour tour ends at the Sistine Chapel.  To go right into the basilica, exit towards the back, to your right.   Normally, this exit is reserved for groups, so you may need to convince the ushers that this is how you want to exit.

If you've felt the burns of damaging your hair, you know that at this point the last thing you want to do is shove more chemicals into it. However, when you consider that you will be using it for a decade or more, paying for a high-quality, yet more expensive model is often worth it. People tend to build different collections; one of the most common and popular, especially among men, is collecting antique guns. Their designs can range from a typical round shape with large hands to a miniature wall painting with intricate features. Safety is vital with such a powerful machine, and we were impressed with the safety measures included on the Destroyit 4107. This is where we are today.

The soft materials actually bring forth an static charge to draw dust particles, allergens, debris, dirt and hairs into the cleaner and attach them firmly. I also happen to think that red is very sexy. This special emulsifier seems to be one step toward reaching this.

Italy Video Blog: Romantic Venice
On our last small group tour of Italy, about half the group (4 of us) took a 2-day extension of the trip to Venice.   It exceeed my expectations in that it is more romantic than I could have possibly imagined.   Venice is one of those unique places on earth because it really is a city built into the sea.
