People queue for half their day to get into the Vatican museum; we didn’t. People queue for the other half of their day to get into the Sistine Chapel; we didn’t.

We did go into the Vatican City piazza. We did queue-up and walk through the corridors of the tombs of the Popes of the past (sorry, photos not allowed). In fact, we had to queue to get out again!

We did send postcards from the Vatican’s post office though — they even have their own postage stamps!
