This was one of the strangest tour guides I ever experienced. Here Roberto (our tour guide) is trying to show us pictures in a book while we are standing in the Colosseum. The group had a size of almost 40 people. We waited about 20 minutes to get in, and only spent about 10 minutes inside.



At the Vatican we randomly ran into the Pope's blessing of the New Year. The Pope is standing at the window of the building in the background. He hung a rug outside of the window so people would know which window to look at.



We also (randomly) ended up in the New Year's mass. The one thing I'll probably never forget is people using the confessional (Beichtstuhl) to make phone calls on their cell phones.
