Florence


The Old Bridge

The City of Florence behind me






Plenty of jewellery shops lining the narrow streets of Florence.




The Golden Door of a Cathedral in Florence





All colours & flavours of ice-creams














The Dome of a Cathedral in Florence







A tour of Italy is not recommended for those who do not like walking or do not have the stamina to walk;weak legs & asthmatics because it involves a LOT of walking. The coach leaves you,say,at Pujut 1 & you have to walk as far as Pujut 7 when you take the Florence City Tour. I remember during my 1st tour to Florence,my kasut abis carik(shoes torn..both sides). I had to plaster them with cellotapes. a lot..a lot ..a lot of walking. If you must or want to see Italy,do not go when you are too old unless of course you're like my aunty who had no sweat walking when she went there.
If you love things historic,then a tour of Italy is for you..the ruins,cathedrals & all that. Then again,all things in Europe are historic.
