Driving to Florence was quite the thrill...gotta say!! I set the GPS to find "The Statue of David". It did just that! It had us in the middle of the Piazza where David is located....sounds good right???? Except there is not supposed to be vehicular traffic outside of taxis and the odd bus that comes through...awkward!!! Once we got back onto the main roadway...we found some parking....but got a E38 (E=Euro) parking ticket....apparently we needed a permit to park there...who knew????
The drivers are mad in Florence...worse than Rome....it was like flying with the Snowbirds.....cars and scooters whizzing past on both sides....cutting in front and behind...crisscrossing all over the place.....Kim was yelling..."this is no good Mav...punch out...eject, eject, eject!!!!!!!
Nevertheless, we landed and had a great day looking at old stuff. Good food, wine and tons of remarkable history.
