Quick post from Firenze

Due to some unfortunate train circumstances, we have to leave Firenze tonight, which we're both quite sad about--if our 36ish hours in this city have shown us anything, it's that there is much, much more to see and do here than we thought. Our hostel is a block away from the Duomo, and we can walk just about everywhere in 10 minutes. We spent last night chatting up our charming Italian waiter, drinking Coronas and strolling on Ponte Vecchio. This morning we went to the Uffizi Gallery where we had to wait in line for about 3 hours. Not worth it you say? Au contraire. We met a lovely couple from Dubai while waiting and got to see some extremely rad art on the inside, including several Giottos, Botticellis, Da Vincis and more. In the last few hours before our train leaves we might try to find a park Mom remembers from her visit here about 30 years ago...

Next stop: PARIS AGAIN!
