No great pity about the Vatican City

After some very brief research I’m still not entirely sure if despite the name, Vatican City is a country, state or just a city but I’m not going to lose any sleep over it. I’ve assumed that like Monaco it’s a separate country and as such can have its own entry all to itself. Clearly one for the insecure types to visit to do whatever makes them feel a bit better about things, our stay was intended to be brief. However not even I could have hoped err, sorry thought, that it would have totalled mere seconds. In trying to find Michelangelo’s ceiling painting we ended up in a big church (St. Peter’s basilica I believe) and after the religious police on the door begrudgingly let us in, after all of 5-10 seconds and this photo we were escorted off the premises for what appeared be a problem with Mirka’s dress showing half a shoulder and therefore no doubt being deemed too slutty. Triple thumbs up from me as this shows that -1, the church doesn’t approve of my partner -2, we went for a beer and -3, I saved €28 on the museum where the ceiling painting actually is. Result!
