Day 10: Florence
... and the writer of the Divine Comedy. Come ON!! I geeked out a bit. Not to mention, the cathedral itself was stunning, as we the cloisters and courtyard outside.

Right, back to today... The castles were quite wonderful actually, particularly the last one as I crawled out near ...
Cinque Terre
... the most part refusing to speak English (not sure if they were capable or not). We wandered around in silence for some time just absorbing the atmosphere of a place that until you see it up close you don’t really think could exist.
