This year I was fortunate to take a trip to Europe with my family. We visited Italy, Greece, and Iceland. While in Rome, a city with a lot of history and culture, we visited Vatican City, where we took an inspiring tour of the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel. Notably, one of the many things we saw was the famous Range Rover — the Popemobile! We were reminded of the attempt on Pope John Paul II’s life that led to the design and inclusion of a boxedshape bullet-resistant glass in the vehicle.

The Colosseum -the largest ancient amphitheater ever built, and the largest standing amphitheater in the world. Built between 69–80 AD in Rome, Italy.
