florence day one

our first meal in florence was mcdonalds breakfast

we were hungry and it was right outside the train station

 we got to walk past lots of pretty sights on the way to our airbnb

 we dropped our stuff off and went to an indoor food market 

 most museums and sights are closed on mondays so we just walked around and got acquainted with the city

 ponte vecchio

 our airbnb was awesome and huge

 the laundry hanging!!!

 i accidentally ordered the world's largest gelato 

while michael ordered a small.....

luckily he helped me eat mine

 we climbed the bell tower

this one was stairs unlike the one with an elevator in venice

 the views were worth it

 inside the baptistry

 inside the duomo

 in the basement/museum of the duomo

 sandwiches from a popular place our pediatrician and michael's coworker referred us to

but i think we ordered poorly because they were just ok

 we ate them back at our airbnb

 we headed back out to walk away from the city for a view

 piazzale michelangelo

 we kept walking and walking

 we tried to go to this cool church but it wasn't open in an obvious way so we walked ALL the way around it

it was a fun adventure and a nice walk

 we finally made it in

but after a while a cute little nun rapped on the window to tell us to leave

(we weren't the only ones there and i think it was time for them to close the gate)

 heart shaped margarita pizza

 he always makes me laugh
