Ok, firstly sorry it´s been so long since our update we did write the florence entry but it deleted itself when we were about to submit, not good, we were too mad to continue!
Anyway, so florence, we drove from rome to florence today which was good, a nice short (3 hour) journeY! arrived at the campsite which by the way was in the best location ever, overlooking the whole of flornece on top of a hill. This afternoon was largely spent setting up the camp, getting pissed and playing cards, ruddy good day! evening was largely spent getting drunk playing cards but in the town, we then craved a taste of home so went to find the traditional indian, but hte one we went to was now made into a sushi bar, gutted for us! so, we went for the next best thing of a chinese. Good day, although the memory of florence a little hazy!

So, our first full day in the lovely city. Holly was extwemely hung over, makes a change cos its usually me who´s the shitty feeling one! So, after holly got a grip we went into the city, we saw some sights, had the most AMAZING lunch, tried some ribollita, typical of tscany, well good...we saw lots of piazzas, they like them in italy, saw lots of leather goods so i bought one and then. So in the evening we went up to the piazale michaelangelo (right next to our campsites) saw the sunset and got some good night shots, then we ended up in the camp bar and had a lovely chilled out night!

Well, today started off very well...until THE incident...holly woke up and said (as she did every morning) "torze, the pcninc table ain.t guna last past florence", i replied "no, shut up you always say that", then so i decided to sit down on it and do my make up...BIG mistake, too many pizzas have proved this! yes, it snapped, i lollaped about on the floor wriggling with the table on top of me, then we decided to finish the bugger off with a mallet (wer have th photies to prove it). So, after the eventful morning we had a lovely day in town, went to the market and bought some meat and stuff for dinner....more leather goods, more posh shops and more sights, today was a lovely end to a lovely trip to florence!
