Day 76 - To Firenze!

So today I woke up and got up and got to get the FUCK out of the Rome camping site, which I was super happy about.

It was a bus day, so not much to say about the travel on the bus.

Once I arrived in Florence I settled into my room, and met some girls, then I went on a tour I had booked which was kind of just an introduction to Florence.

The guide took us to around Florence, and showed us where we could see the David and how to book tickets all useful kind of stuff and told us a little history.

After this we went to a leather demonstration, where they showed us how they make leather jewelery boxes, and how to tell real leather from fake (which is basically impossible now anyway lol) After this we went to dinner (which was all included in the price of the tour) first course we got some bruschetta, then second was some Pasta, a pesto one and a chilli tomato one (Italians don't really know how to do spice though lol) and then third course I got the meat dish, although the meat was pretty tough. Then fourth course was then vanilla gelati with chocolate syrup. Was an ok dinner with cool company and decent conversation lol.

After that I walked home with a few girls from dinner, and they were going to go drinking, but I decided to go for a drink, but I was SOOO exhausted I went and had a shower and went to bed.

Things that made me happy today; The most delicious Pesto ever!

Things that made me sad today; The price of Leather :S
