You can't take pictures inside the Sistene Chapel. But, you can take pictures of a display showing pictures someone _else_ took inside the Sistene Chapel!

And here's a picture of pictures of the ceiling. Really, the Sistene Chapel is worth the visit - don't judge it by these super low-res pictures!

David in a room with...a big bowl. Unfortunately I didn't write down its significance. (also, we had to take this picture really quickly (see all the people around!) so we didn't have time for a proper pose)

The bowl room - the mosaics on the floor were very nice! I like mosaics.

One of the many rooms of the Vatican. Hopefully you can get a sense of how crowded it was (very).

A tapestry of the adoration of the Magi. (or at least the adoration of someone...it's a little hard to tell!)
