Oh, the hours I passed today in the Vatican Museums. Aside from having to bump up against sweaty tour groups in a few of the rooms, this was a thoroughly enjoyable museum visit. I paid the extra six euro for the audio guide, which was completely worth it. It's difficult to do all the necessary (and unnecessary) preliminary research ahead of your visit because there is so much to see in these museums. Relying on the audio guide turned out to be a more than suitable alternative, and that fashionable lanyard around my neck was less cumbersome than carrying around my Eyewitness guide. My favorite fresco--the School of Athens in the Stanza della Segnatura.
