The Michelangelo David

Another ambition on this trip was to see the Michelangelo masterpiece David. It is quite overwhelming and worth the visit to Florence in itself. Unfortunately photography is not allowed and one of the abiding memories of the visit will be the Italian museum wardens screaming “no photos!!!” The photos I did take of David are of a copy in one of the main squares in Florence. After David we climbed the bell tower (a lot of steps) for a wonderful view of the Duomo and the rest of the city.
 
Now it is time to pack, for sure I am looking forward to getting back on the road. Tomorrow we will head for Maranello for a quick visit, then on to Lake Garda for another few days. I am quite glad the city leg of the tour is over. Now we plan a very relaxing time by the lake, hopefully a trip on the lake by boat/taxi and I also hope to do a bit of driving and get some decent photos.

Highlight of the day: David, David, David
Lowlight of the day: Feeling ripped off after being charged EUR 19.50 for a tiny espresso, coke and orange juice.
