Florence is always beautiful. The Duomo is one of my favorites. Sadly we were all too exhausted to climb the bell tower and see the beautiful view. We did however make reservations to skip the 2.5 hour line and take a peak in the Uffizi. I was particularly impressed with a number of paintings of mothers adoring their babies. I love the expression painted on both the mothers’ and the babes’ faces of complete adoration for each other…probably because I completely relate. We decided to skip the statue of David as you can see a reproduction of him in the square where he used to stand for free.
