"Europe's most famous sovereign state"

We visited the Vatican and Rome today, and passed through the Vatican Museum. We only got a limited preview, though, because it is said that it takes 3 days to see it fully. Our tour guide was a very well educated art historian and let us in on the mindset of Michelangelo that really made the Sistine Chapel come alive for us. Our concert in the Pantheon impressed both locals and tourists, and our concert at the Baptist church went very well (molto bene, as they say).
Our days are extremely long, as we woke up at 6:30am, and I am posting this at 11:43 pm. I will leave a couple of pictures and the 24-hour itinerary.

Apparently, electricity is so expensive in Italy, very few people own dryers.
