ROMA -3
So as I was saying, all the styles of architecture are on top of each other. The city is rather chaotic, especially after being in Vienna right before but that is part of its beauty. It is obvious that the rules or each period decided to do whatever they wanted to do without having much of a big picture for a big city, but in my view that is what makes it beautiful.
Today we went to the Vatican Museum. Talking about the Vatican, the Vatican employees have been the rudest I have encountered in all Europe. There are a lot of homeless people in Rome and it is embarrasing. I mean, the mighty church should be embarassed, at least in Rome no one should go without a roof on their heads, in the city of God and with the mighty rich Vatican city. Mmmmhh, political ranting, but true. Anyway, finally saw the Sistine Chapel, it was very emotional really as it is all that showing of perfection. The guy really knew how to see thus knew how to draw, knew everythinga bout the Bible and the Divina Comedia and was able to create what he did....dam it! running out of internet, well, ciao bellos, big night out tonight, i think last one in Rome.

u u u u u... if you are still in Rome go and have dinner at the Original Alfredo Ristorante. The fetuccini Alfredo is amazing and it is worth trying it at least once!!!

O sea como?? Why would the church be embarrased for the homeless in Rome?? Being homeless is a choice, and there are homeless everywhere, so the fact that you see more in Rome is just because it is easier there to appeal to the good samaritan in people, which translates to taking advantage of the tourist. Capisci???? By the way, the Vatican as an independent country has nothing to do with the economic fortune of Italy. Elgatitolindo

yes, yes, all politics, but from the strict sense of what church means to the masses, and what they say about taking care of each other they should do that. I know that is utopia and naive commentary if you wish, but still it makes me mad. In general, this whole church thing has neve been something I really agree with. Endendes what i mean? and I dont think being homeless is a choice for many people, there are many mentally ill persons that truly dont have a choice. though, I know for a fact that there are people that DO choose to live in the streets

Entindo de donde viene tu comentario, aunque senti un poco de agresividad en tu respuesta.
Yo no veo proque no pueda haber home-less en el Vaticano, pues es una ciudad mas en el mundo donde existe riquieza y pobreza, ademas al fin y al cabo y con toda su grandeza y belleza el Vaticano no es mas que otra Grandisima Corporacion
