Florence the city of romantics



okay as i type this, shearn is snoring quite loudly below my bunk bed. today was basically free and easy after we arrived in Florence. Florence is truly a beautiful city and a really romantic one indeed, after all what more can you expect from a city which is renowned as the cradle of the renaissance for its palaces, churches and museums. Its just the feel of the place that makes it feel different. If i had to choose places to go for my honeymoon, this would defnitely be in the list. 

Florence spots different types of architecture influence and is centered around the Duomo, this massive church in the center and yes its beautiful. Down the road, there's the Piazza della Signoria where the infamous Uffizi musuem can be found and also the Palazzo Vecchio. Florence is like an open air musuem with public art pieces littering the Piazzas. We had a good busking display outside the Palazzo Vecchio where we sat and chilled for almost an hour.
