At the entrance of the Duomo Florence -Gothic Cathedral built 12-1400, largest dome in the world until the modern area. Only one left made of brick.
Wandered around and found Divinci Museum. Great to see working models of his design inventions. Boys saw some models they had studied in school. They loved it. Dad- you would have as well! We saw early models of ball bearings, screw, helicopter, bike, tank, parachute, robot and more.
Kept waking and discovered the church where the graves of michaelangelo and Galileo were buried.
Rick and I managed to get in a little shopping while boys relaxed back in the apartment. It's great as shops open till 7.30.
Early to bed tonight as heading to Pisa and Cinque Terre tomorrow. It will be great to see the coast.
Florence really pretty - would love to go in to the hills - next trip!!
