Firenze (part 2)

So this is my first mobile blog! Im currently five hours into a six hour bus ride to ferrara in northern Italy. I slept the first three, but have been pretty awake the rest of the time, so i figured what better time than now to write in the blog.

I'm going to write until my fingers get tired from typing on my phone, and I ask that you also ignore my lack of capitalization if it occurs, I will come back on my computer sometime in the future and fix that.

so, florence, part 2... We found our hotel which wasn't far from the train station at all. It was the third story of an apartment building, a family run business with really nice staff, good size rooms, and soft boiled eggs for breakfast!(oh eggs, how i miss thee. and milk...i don't even want to talk about milk right now, thats a rant for another time). So we got settled in the hotel and went exploring.

my timeline of events might be very wrong, i can never remember when and what order we did things, but i'll try my best.

the duomo:
is my spelling correct on that? I'm not really sure but i'm going to roll with it. we did duomo related activities on both friday and sunday, but i am going to talk about both now. the duomo is an incredible piece of art, on the outside. (pictures soon) on friday we climbed the belltower for a spectacular view of florence. the stairs up were a little rough, but we managed. We also went inside on friday, which is pretty bare compared to the complex facade outside. on sunday we went to mass inside and sat under the duomo which was really cool. we also went into the duomo museum which explained the history of the duomo, which has changed appearance many times. The most interesting thing is just walking around the outside and taking a look at it all.

we are almost at ferrara now, so i figure it is a good time to stop. i'll continue soon!
