Please help me welcome Joyce (minnieomie) to the Adventure!
I have yet another Vatican question for those of you who've been on the trip before. It looks like we are on our own after lunch. Did they give you tickets so you can go back into the Vatican Museum after lunch if you want to spend more time there?

My point is that just because you are being told to rush through a gift shop, museum etc., you don't really have to do so.
I've been enjoying the "Strip the City" series on the Science Channel. Infrastructure rocks.
This week, Venice gets Stripped. http://www.sciencechannel.com/tv-shows/strip-the-city/tv-schedule.htm
Thought you should know.
PBS Nova Tonight 9 pm eastern has a special on how Brunelleschi built the dome for the great cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence.

Once you've been to Florence, it never really leaves you.
Thanks Jack! I went back and read your trip report again. It is so helpful! And I appreciate the advice about shopping. I definitely want to pick up a few religious items while we're there.

This is a very cool show and we loved the Venice one ...however I'm not so cool with that flooding part .. and they never did mention when that flooding actually happened . I think it happened again a couple of months after we were there...
