Now this all passes the sofa test (I need to get a bigger sofa though). No time to study in depth now however, Thank you.
Yes, especially for the Sistine Chapel. I don't think they even have sofas in there, although for the papal enclaves they do have beds (!).
1. That unbelievable, eye-watering, jaw-dropping art (well before the famous, or infamous if you prefer, restoration)
2. Lots of nuns
3. A fair number of overweight men in Hawaiian T-shirts and Bermuda shorts
What a hoot! (I couldn't believe I'd allowed myself to waste the whole morning trudging through all the Etruscan crap in the Vatican Museum)
