Florence 8 May 2007

People in Florence are very artistic. on the streets, musicians, painters and street performance are everywhere! one thing to be aware is that italians are very 'warming'. they will come over to hug and kiss u even u have no idea who they are. unfortunately we are one of the victim. some of the attractions that we have visited are the pizza della signoria and santa croce. i climbed up 463 steps in the duomo to get an birdeye view of florence. it was worth the climb. the interior roof of the cathedral was painted and the cathedral was lit up by the stained glasses. We also went up the hill to see the replica of David bz Michael Angelo. He took 9 ÿears to complete the statue!
