We have arrived in Florence as of June 12 and after another night spent in a fine hotel (courtesey of a mistake by the hoste) we have checked into our hostel, Archi Rossi. The hostel, along with Firenze, is beautiful! We have a private room with bathroom and a fan, a truly perfect place to come back to after a long day of seeing all that this beautiful city has to offer.
Yesterday we basically just walked around and tried to get a feel for our area, making our way to the Duomo and starring in awe at its size and the details that are almost too much to comprehend. Today we went on our museum stops, first going to the Academia where we saw Madonna with Child and of course Michaelangeolo's David, something which truly must be seen in person to appreciate. Following that the girls went to the Uffizi while Andrew and I went down to the Ponte Vecchio and wandered throught the rest of the city.
We're planning on going out tonight althought we don't really have any idea where. The hostel provides us with free breakafast and dinner so we have that much more money to spend on drinks; nice! Can't wait to see you all soon and tell you the stories from our trip in person.
Cheers!
Luke
