Heading for Firenze
We left Tuscany, travelled to Orvieto, turned in the rental car, hopped a train and went to Florence. One of the most beautiful cities, the most important, the largest collection of art...all the superlatives you can think of...however....it was one of the disappointments on this trip. It was overrun with tourist (people like us). The line stretched 3 blocks to get into church. The line stretched just as long to get in to see David. Overcrowded, overrun with pickpockets, very filthy and very expensive. I did not care a whole lot for Florence. That block is checked.
