Day 10: Florence
... Michelangelo, which is on the top of a hill and overlooks the entirety of Florence across the river. My God, was it beautiful. Not only could we see the whole city, but also tumbling Tuscan hills with Cyprus trees and an old city wall unrolling into the distance. Not a bad couple of hours to spend in the afternoon. The hike up to Piazzale Michelangelo was strenuous, so we took our time coming back down the hill and across the river on our way to Santa Croce, a cathedral that houses ...
Day 9: Florence
Today was a full walking day around Florence. The crowds here are worse than they've been anywhere so far, but it may be because it was a beautiful Sunday and it's a small city, so it feels more cramped.

We then continued to walk back to our hotel and came across a street performer, he was just as entertaining as the orchestra, very funny alough a little rude which made it that much better, he even got the crowd involved and has been the best I've seen in Europe so ...
Venice
... It’s a very honorable position and it takes years to learn how to do it. I bought a little ring for myself made of murano glass as a keepsake from Venice. They have all sorts of stuff made out of murano glass, though, including cups, vases, platters, statues, etc.
After that, we had free time for lunch. My friends and I went a to cute little restaurant and I ordered the clam pasta, which our guide recommended because that’s one of Venice’s ...
