Day 19: Florance

We had been waking up so late for the past week that we had forgotten how painful it is to wake up so early. But it was a tast that must be done! We got dressed, jumped in the car, and drove to the nearest train station. We boarded the train and road all the way to Florance (a good hour ride).

Once there, it didnt look much different from the other bigger citys we have been to, besides the fact that there were huge street markets everywhere you went. We strode through them, trying to not look the venders in the eyes. Once you do, its like their a tiger pouncing on their prey. Once we made our way through one, we ended up in front of the statue of David (a famous statue made my Michaelangelo). After taking a couple pictures, we made our way to the reservation line for the Uffizi museum. After an airport security type deal, we walked for atleast an houre through a countless number of halls looking at hundreds of paintings. By the time we left, we had seen enough art to last a lifetime.

We had a delicious lunch, shopped for several more hours, boarded the train, and headed back home.

It was a great last day sight seeing, we werent very happy to leave.
Tomorrow is our last day here. The only thign we will be doing is cleaning and packing. We leave the next day really early so we're gonna try our hardest to get to be early tomorrow night. So, this means this is the last blog entry. Thank you all for reading, I hope you enjoyed hearing about our adventures here in Italy. It was a wonderful ytip of a lifetime that we will remember for the rest of our lives.

Next time... Austrailia?

See you soon, Washington. <3
