Florence is a beautiful city. Lots of tourists and too many cars and motorbikes zipping down the narrow lanes though. I find myself really loving the small towns in Italia and caring less so about the bigger cities.
Off to Cinque Terre tomorrow.

Day trip to Florence
We took a nice day trip to Florence today. Took the bus from Siena, an easy 1 hour and 20 minutes for 7 Euro. Walked around a bit and visited the Accademia and Uffizi. Seeing the David again was awesome. I last saw him when I was in junior high school with my Spanish class from Sepulveda. What an incredible piece of art. The Uffizi was less impressive - just not my type of museum.
