The tour we were on took us back to Florence today, one of the few places the two tours overlapped. We felt as if we were very familiar with the city by then, so while the rest of our fellow travelers left on the coach for the city center for a walking tour to see Michelangelo’s David and the Duomo, we decided to go our own way.
We made our way across the city from our hotel, which was near the Ponte Veccho, and spent some time in the Duomo area, revisiting the favorite places we had discovered: Tijuana Grill for lunch, cappuccino in the rooftop café of the Biblioteca della Oblate, a glass of wine at our rooftop bar, and finally dinner at Melotti Risotteria. We took a taxi from the restaurant back to the hotel, grateful that we had spent this full day in Florence on our own. It was truly the city which we had enjoyed the most in Italy and would return to again, perhaps on some future special occasion.
