All effort and no reward I woke up at 9 and spent the first hour online chatting to emily and gemma on my paldringo app. We eventually stirred i grabbed a shower, the water was warm but kept fading in and out. We got dressed and walked down to museum of uffizi. The queue for this place wasnt long it just didnt move! An american couple told us where we could reserve tickets so we walked with them to the office and bought entrance for 13:30 for €10.50, €4 more...

The tour guide hostel owner and the pork feast We woke up at 9 as we needed to check out and catch the train to florence for 10:45. We boarded a local train as it was the cheapest.

After 10 minutes i found a free bathroom i headed to it quickly, the shared bathrooms where actually ok whe...

The colluseum, needing a wash at the confusing museum Saturdays nights tea for me consisted of a meat feast, i did order chips but they never came. So id paid €20 for 4 pieces of meat and a large beer! Expensive or what. We went back to the hostel and got woken up at 8:30 with bells ringing from the churches. I didnt like this hostel and wanted to leave sharpish. So we grabbed breakfast, well a bread roll and some dodgy orange juice and checked out straight aw...
