We woke up in Venice at around 9 am, and were off to Florence by about 10:30 am. We arrived in Florence at around 1:00. We found our hostel, put our stuff down, and headed out to explore the city! After finding an amazing panini place, we met up with 3 of my friends from Gettysburg, and went to a wine bar with them! Afterwards, they showed us around the city for a little while. Then we headed back to our hotel to get ready for dinner! We had dinner with a few more of my friends from Gettysburg, and then afterwards met up with even more friends of mine! It was so much fun seeing everyone! Florence is an incredible city!
The next day, we woke up early and went to an American diner for breakfast. We then decided to climb to the top of the tower. 420 steps. To say it was difficult would be an understatement- but it was VERY much worth it!! Our time in Florence was quick, but we made the most of it! And saw pretty much the entire city. We headed back to Venice around 2:30, and arrived around 4:30. We checked back into our hostel and then met up with the Gettysburg kids who did not go to Florence. We all ended the trip with another group dinner at a great Italian place.
All in all, it as one of the quickest but also one of the best weekends so far on this trip!!
