Churches, churches, and more churches

After an early flight from Athens, we landed in Rome at the Fiumicino Airport. Upon our arrival, we purchased train tickets to Roma Termini. Our train arrived at the station as we were receiving our tickets, so we had to run to the train. We were lucky that everyone was able to squeeze onto the train because it was going to leave without us.

After a filling buffet, the guys and I met the class in the hotel lobby for a short church walk. I do not remember the names of all of the churches because I visited around 30 churches during my time in Rome. The churches that we visited on our first day in Rome were filled with intricate details worthy of exhibits in museums. When I was taking the course, I believed that the Sistine Chapel was going to have the most impressive artwork, but the proximity I achieved in these churches made them feel more detailed.
