Florence 7 May 2007


View Contiki camping tour on poppies's travel map.

We reached Florence where artists like Leonardo Da Vinci, Michael Angelo, Botticelli have built this city into an arty hub. This is also the home for the statue David. Theÿ have indeed done an excellent job! On the way to Florence, we visited the leaning Pisa. it's 15.5m. each year, the pisa will move by a cm instead of 3 inches before the rescuing project took place. as time ïs tight, we didn't manage to climb up. So disappointing! Italian loves their gold and leather and i love their Gelato. some cafes have more than 20 favours to choose from! If you are in italy, be sure to try their Gelato, pizza, pasta and florentine. Florentine is a big slice of beef weighing at least 500g which they will drain away the blood before grilling it. Excellent taste!

After dinner, we went to town for an english 'Karaoke' sesssion. there is only öne hall and one man band. You will sing and dance on the stage to heat up the dance floor. some really sucks but thank goodness our 2 korean friends saved the night. good job, guys!
