Late But Still Great

Theodore_C, Apr 2026

This tour was scheduled for 9:00 am. It got moved to 3:00 due to a conflict with a vatican event. Then, the 3:00 pm tour did not start until 3:30. Putting that aside, the actual tour was excellent and more than made up for the late start. Patrick was an excellent guide. Seeing St. Peter’s bones is beyond comprehension.
