Left Betsy to rest in the campground while we went and explored Florence. The campground shuttle bus ran us down to the local village of Fiesole where we caught the bus into Florence. What an amazing place. The architecture, the history the buildings and the CROWDS. We got in there about 9.30 and the place was just being set up for the day. I would hate to be in this place in the middle of the season. It would be totally unbearable. The Italians seem to have only one direction and that is straight ahead and to bad if you are on that line, they don't bother to move. Every corner you take turns up something new. We thought we had found a nice little place for lunch but half an hour later we found this amazing square which had all sorts of goodies to eat. C'est la vie. Got back to base about 5pm so it was a big day on foot but none the less something you would not want to miss. Got lotsa pikkies.
Tomorrow we are heading for Assisi which apparently is further up in this hills a couple of hours South of here.
