Florence Day 1

So arrived in Florence in the morning, wandered into the city centre, went to meet my friend, Luca. I haven't seen him in a year. He was surprised that I could still remember the place he worked. He was busy with work so I was left to wander around on my own.

Duomo in Florence, Italy



This magnificent structure is just astoundingly beautiful.


 Everywhere you go it's just full of tourists!


Michelangelo's David in front of the Palazzo Vechio in Florence. I think this one might be a replica. Still beautiful nevertheless.
The real one is of course in the Galleria dell'Accademia in Florence.


Fountain in front of Palazzo Vecchio.

Uffizi gallery with the long long queues.

I visited the gallery last year, it is full of marvellous paintings, definitely well worth a visit.

Full of gold jewellery
