We got up this morning and packed up our tent to begin our journey to Florence. For the last time we caught the 337 and 36 to the station, where tickets to Florence cost us AU$26 each, and a train was due to depart in 20 minutes. We got our seats and went and bought some McDonald’s for brunch. The train was half an hour late departing but this gave is a bit of extra time for diary writing and reading.
The trip took us three hours and we arrived in Florence SMN at four pm and we went straight to the tourist information to find out our best option for accommodation.
We decide to camp again as hostel/hotels are really expensive here. We caught the bus number 13 from the station and half hour later we arrived at Campeggio Michelangelo, next to the Piazza of the same name. We’re on a hill south of the city with a great view over Florence.
We put the Taj up and got straight into a pasta with 4 cheeses on the gas cooker. By the time we’d cleaned up it was dark so we opted for an early night, so as to get started early on Florence tomorrow as we will only have two or three days here and, hopefully, we’ll do a day trip to Pisa as well.
