Today was another pleasant and educational day. We went to visit the pope at the
Vatican which was absolutely amazing. I never thought I would actually be in his presence. The place was completely filled, there was no room to take a step. Before this I had only seen the pope on television where I always thought it was beautiful. Now that I have seen it firsthand I can say that it is. To meet people from different cultures and ethnic backgrounds from all over the world is an experience itself. Later in the day we visited the Trivia Fountain. I threw in a coin for good luck. The atmosphere was amazing and everyone was very peaceful. I really enjoyed my time in
Rome on Sunday, and I am looking forward to the rest of my time here.
