Inside Heaven
 
This is our aim ....to get to the top !!!
 
Inside the Dome mosaics that are just beautiful !
 
Surely this is what heaven is like ?
 
so bright and clear you can't resist a touch
 
The Cathedra of St Peter by Bernini (1665)
 
Michelangelo's Dome
 
The letters around the dome measure 2m high!
 
they look like ants !!!
 
a break in the sun before we climb !!!
 
we're going up that way !
 
time to take the 331 steps !!!

these were taken when we visited the top of St Peter's in April 2008
