Went for our Rome run at 5.30am. Then pack, breakfast and on the bus.
Once in Florence we went to the university museum to see Michaelangelo's David and other works. David is a bit of a Goliath, standing 5 meters tall. After this we toured the city past more churches, town hall and a quaint 700 year old bridge that is packed with gold shops. We also went to a demonstration on making leather goods. We had some free time so grabbed a gelato and wandered the city.

| A tower |

| another church - seen 50, 700 year old buildings, you've seen them all |
 |
| Benvenuto Cellini's 1545 bronze sculpture of Perseus with the head of Medusa, a very famous artist, the one who spent time in jail for murder. |

| Somebody has been very clever with the no entry signs, saw another in Rome where the man was carrying the white bar. |
