So long Siena, Farewell Florence, Ta ta Tuscany
Ryan and I beat the heat of the day up with an early start - we finished the last of the figs we'd picked straight from the neighbouring trees and packed up once more to head back to Florence to return our precious Panda. I drove to get a little more practice in with the benefit of an instructor - next time, I'll be on my own!
It was …
Day 10: Florence
... We watched some kids run into a creperie and decided it was time for Mom to try her first Nutella crepe. They are so gooey and chocolatey and sweetly delicious. Once we were in Santa Croce, we only had a little time, so went straight to the Masters' tombs. I can't explain the absolute disbelief and surrealty of standing in front of the spot where Galileo, Michelangelo and Dante rest. I mean, you're literally 10 feet from the father of modern astronomy, the painter of the ...
Ciao Firenze :)
... see a structure like that leaning.. we spent the rest of the evening taking cheesy touristy pictures (obviously!!!).. it was a lot of fun! we did not buy the 15-20 euro ticket to climb the Tower. We are scared of climbing narrow winding stairs in the dark! :) And then headed back to Florence after dinner at the Piazza. The lady at the cafe we ate at was a little rude and we noticed that she asked us to pay for the meal before serving us and that she did not ask all the customers to ...
Lots of updates!
... 8217;s actually been a lot harder than I expected, but I’ve definitely learned a lot from it. Taking shots of people is definitely a lot harder than taking architecture, nature or landscape shots. It means that you have to stop and talk to the person or ask if you can take their picture.

Second Dinner
... for today. *sigh* never again- I can't bring myself to do it. This is how you know I make no sense- regular size cow? yup. Baby cow? Nope! Fried pork skin? yup. Pork chop? Nope! Chicken breast? yup. Turkey breast? Nope!
Dinner of course concluded with espresso for both and grappa for Brian.
After all this, we still had to get us some gelato! Because we are now snobs, we went to RivaReno and got pistachio gelato. They clearly state ...

TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel Golf Florence
Such a disappointing end to an otherwise wonderful trip around Tuscany. There is nothing to recommend about this hotel. The room was awful, two horrible beds pushed together and sold as a double, dirty and dated decor, disgusting breakfast, bad location and the single rudest and least helpful staff of the whole trip.
Stay away!
