We're going to Florence, and....

[PeachesMcLean]

want to know everything you know about it. I'm soooo excited!

We're staying near there with opportunities for a couple of day trips. Going in June with our 6 year old son who is well used to being dragged round "places of interest", and can occasionally be appreciative, but does anyone have any tips / advice / comments at all about the place. Food / places to see / what to avoid. Anything.
Thanks in advance.

must have been neptune we took photos of, still getting it wrong, more

Califrau what about the orphange/mueseum place, does that ring any bells??
I think it's near Santa maria novella?

(but as you can tel I am quite likely to be wrong on that)

Yes, it was Neptune!!

I'd even been to Florence before and seen David many times on that visit, so assured DS I knew what evrything was.

WE took lots of photos of Neptune thinking it was David and only discovered later when looking at popstcards and saw one of David.

This is an amusing story for DS to tell though bout how his silly banana of a mummy didn't know what she talking about and took photos of the wrong thing.

Very exocited about going back this year will start getting the guide books out soon an dplanning (I'm a bit sad like that)

Psml Peaches, didn't even realise it could potentially read that way until you pointed it out!

can anyone tell me how far away from eachother are pisa, florence and siena if travelling by bus/train?
