Florence and the Machines & The Leaning Tower
It seems like so long ago we were in Florence but it has been only a week! We have managed to fit in so much in these two weeks. It is exhausting but rewarding work. The main reason to travel to Florence was a day trip to Pisa. It wasn't really the most exciting place we had been to and the heat had taken it out of us but we made the most of it …
Day 10: Florence
