Arrived in Florence, drove straight to the hills above and miraculously found a fab hotel called Villa Fiesole, the most amazing views over Florence which I actually found quite dull..... I know, I know, maybe even I have been cultured to death! poor maggie.... dragged her around a great ex-convent with some great Frescoes by a guy called Fra Bartollini, not sure about those nuns they seem a bit strange to me! Then had to queue for 2 hours to get into the Gallerie D'Academie to see Michaelangelos David! Words fail me of all the art, sculpture and architecture we've seen this certainly still managed to take our breath away he is absolutely beautiful one of our highlights.
