Today:

• Gusta Pizza
  -everyone talked about this pizza place so I had to try it. After wandering around searching for over an hour (3G wasn't yet activated on my phone and I does anyone know how to use a real map anymore?), I found it and enjoyed it.
  -I was number 92, hence the title of this post.
  -Gusta is located on the other side of the river. This was the first time I had been over there and I really liked it! Definitely a different feel from the city center...more open.
  -I had intended on walking over the Ponte Vecchio but got antsy and went a bridge too early...another time!
• Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens
  -another "holy crap" moment. Turned the corner after having bought my pizza and there was the Pitti Palace--HUGE, and beautiful
  
Inside the Pitti Palace


-had an amazing cafe fredde in the cafe before going to the gardens and exploring. when I say amazing, I mean the best iced coffee I've ever had.

-Boboli gardens are amazing--I spent hours just walking around. My camera is definitely my best friend here :) Beautiful views, landscapes, everything

statues in the gardens

-Visited the Costume Gallery in the Palace...so cool...just a display of fashion over time. No photos were allowed :( but it was really amazing.
-Dad has taught me well, made 3 trips to the bathroom during my visit.

Home, sweet home


• Piazella Michelangelo
  -such a hike but totally worth it
  -camera died a few minutes after being at the top

view from the top

-I will go back, I want to go at sunset anyways.

Lesson of the day: What goes down, must come back up. (The gardens are SO hilly!)
