Pictures do not do it justice.
It was so beautiful, and huge, and ornate...

The Spanish Steps

Steps walking down into Paul's Prison cell...
Very very cool, standing in a place that we know Paul wrote scripture..

Pompei
This is a shot of Mnt. Vesuvius, the Volcano that erupted and wiped out Pompei...
It was very scary looking.
