Hello Florence, It's Been Too Long

Even though I arrived in Florence yesterday, I didn't manage to put up a post until now. I've enjoyed seeing the city again, and it's a slightly different place than Rome. It's much smaller, cleaner, and overall more pleasant. I haven't done much yet, mostly just walking around. Today I went to a museum in the Palazzo Pitti, the old home of the Medici family (they ruled Florence for many years). The museum was full of Renaissance paintings, and while there were a few gems, I wouldn't go back. Tomorrow I hope to climb Brunelleschi's famous dome! I'll leave you with a photo of the best thing in Italy: GELATO.
