Left Nice and made a n evening visit to Pisa. Bad weather and traffic delayed us so we had to view the sights in the twilight. Spent the night in Monticantini and went on to Florence in the morning for a Doc Campbell Phantazamagoria. Saw Giotto's Tower, The Duomo, The Bapistry and the Doors to Paradise. Threw in The Cathedral de Sacre Croce where DiVinci, Galleleo, Dante, Michelangelo and countless others are buried. Next The Ufetzi Gallery and the Pont de Vecchio. Our guide was wonderful and was moved to tears when describing some of the treasures of Florence. The areas around these treasures are still open to vehicle traffic so you take your life in your hands at times. There are also beggars and pickpockets trying to get their Christmas money.There just wasn't enough time to see everything so it will go on my list of places to visit again.
