Day 11

Today we again had a great breakfast at our beautiful Venice hotel. We headed to the train station as we are off to florence. The train was on time and we were in Florence by early afternoon. Our hotel is called hotel unicorno and it's only about a ten minute walk from the train station. One of our rooms were ready so we stashed everything in there and headed down to the Duomo. This is definitely one of the most amazing buildings we have seen this trip! From there we had gelato (actually about our 5th one) and then we had to walk just a couple blocks to find the leather. Georgia has been saving money for a long time and she was pretty sure she wanted a leather coat so we began the serious job of bartering. Georgia did get a coat but John and Anna struck out today! We bought a few other smaller things and had lunch. We then walked around some other amazing areas in florence. We went back to our room to get into other room and chill for a bit. I am not sure if we just can't handle the heat or if we are just trying to be how they are in this culture.

It was hard but we rallied and went back out for dinner. Tomorrow we will see more of Florence!
