42 degrees ahhhhh!! Well we got up early to go and see a leather demonstration which was interesting I guess. After this we went for a walk to get some local food. Even tried some beef sandwich thing so I got a chicken sandwich and a cafe creme ( like a coffee frappe, really nice!). After food we went to the museum to see David and thanks to a nice tip, we went straight in and skipped the hour line :) So David was absolutely amazing and spectacular! It was so ...

Rome to Florence :) Before we arrived in Florence we went to a vineyard for some wine tasting. For those that know me, I'm a beer girl and I don't do wine.

All the ancient buildings e.g. Fountains, colosse...

Venice, Venice, Venice :) If anyone doesn't know, Venice is a little island of only pedestrianized streets and is only accessible by boat. So we dropped the coach off, got on a boat and went to visit Venice :) So Venice is a beautiful city (wow I say beautiful a lot but really everything in Europe is beautiful). We first began with a walking tour with out little French guide. After walking around and learning some things we went to a glass blowing display and a...
