River Arno after dark

We were lucky enough to visit the Uffizi art gallery today. Renaissance art - incredible to see so many actual paintings from the 15th century and upwards. Educational too, so much you think you know, but do you really?

We also enjoyed an afternoon boat tour. There seems only to be this one electric tourist boat. We saw it again later, as we crossed one of the bridges. This beautiful scene was accompanied by ethereal music from a violinist on the boat. Altogether a magical moment.

THANK YOU so much for your hearts, stars and comments for my 2000th blip! I made it into the top ten of popular today! Bliptastic! I will respond to you all personally after my Florentine adventure. X
