Look good! |
The hotel shuttle bus to Florence town, left the hotel at 8 am! First to the Galleria dell'Accademia to see the Statue of David. It was early morning but still already a long queue in front of the entrance. Seeing the real thing was quite different from what we had seen from internet or poster! Everything was so impressive! After we got out of the museum, there was even much longer queue than this morning, lucky us! To the Basilica di Santa Croce through the Dom then, we visited the grave of Michelangelo and Galileo and took a walk inside the city. Wandering around the small street, eating lasagna and pasta in a self-service restaurant, 1 hour nap for me in the Piazza della Signoria and we entered the Uffizi Gallery at 2:00pm to see The Birth of Venus, then, walked up to the Pitti Palace across the Ponte Vecchio bridge. I was so tired so we decided to go back to the hotel by bus at 5:30pm today, quite early than planned. A lot of funny road signs made the ride so fun! Don't miss it!
