Our first walk in Italy was to the Vatican on the afternoon of the day we arrived.
We could see a glimpse of the Vatican from our hotel so knew it was not too far away and set out to walk and explore our surroundings.
The Pope returned from the hospital the next day, March 23, 2025, while we were in Rome.
Two days later, March 24th, we went back, bought tickets and toured everything at Vatican City that was open to the public.
It was all incredible, including the views!
We found a fun restaurant with outdoor seating for dinner which turned out to be a perfect spot to eat great food and talk about our day.
We walked back along the river.
An amazing day!
