Day 10: Florence
... of Michelangelo, Galileo, Niccolo Medicci and Dante, as well as works by Donatello. On our way there, we walked through a little alleyway where school children were being let out for the day and families were there picking them up (no one was in a car; everyone walked or rode bikes). It was a very cute, Italian, everyday scene, and we enjoyed watching it unfold. All the parents picking up their kids had some kind of snack for them -- that must be some kind of tradition or regular ...
Day 9: Florence

22/9 Wednesday Greve, Chianti
... better in the smaller towns. In Florence lots of restaurants have tourist menus which aren't that great, pizza, pasta etc. We have found a good spot for cheap coffee in the morning surprisingly near the Duomo, which is on the way to the station.
