Florence // Firenze
Florence gives us the impression that it is a really cultural place. In fact, I read from some guide that people from Florence consider themselves cleverer than the other Italians. haha snobs.
<-- The coat of arms of Florence (reminds you of scout emblem?)
The most famous sight is definitely the Florence Duomo. Its unique white-green exterior is only seen in Florence! Palazzo Vechio: The intimidating-looking fortress overlooks the Piazza della Signoria, which is famous for its replica copy of Michaelangelo's David and many other statues. Here is Fake David.We caught a parade in the vicinity, with people all dressed up in costumes and drumming lively beats.Along the Arno River...

Santa Croce: This church looks similar to the Duomo, the same white-green exterior.
It houses the tombs of Galileo, Michelangelo, Machiavelli, Dante and other famous people. We were cheapskate and didn't want to pay to go in, sooo here's a peek.
View from Piazza Michaelangelo. Oh how we love this place. Pisa
Pisa has nothing much worth seeing aside from the leaning tower of Pisa. So if you're planning to go there, just save half a day for it, and pack you pinic basket along!
Perfect weather for snapping pictures!
