Day 28 - Firenze

Florenzo, the home of Michaelangelo's David, and pretty much nothing else, but its actually worth going just for that. Like the 5.17 metre monumental statue of David shortly before his battle with Goliath is savage. Considering it only cost us 5 euro to see it, and it had no queue whatsoever it was defo worth the trip.

Otherwise Florence is like every single other differnt italian city. Its kinda quiet, hot and has a pretty alright church. Nothing really to write home about, so why the hell am I bothering to. The answer, I am kinda bored in Rome already. Lorcan is asleep and Mick is typing some stuff. Me and Col want to go out and do something.

Also in Florence we saw some botanical gardens and spent a whole lot of time in a sports store as usual. Banter really, I bought a Ferrari shirt, wtf, why I am bothering....

We got food in a random place, was pretty cheap but we had to have a desert cause the legendary waiter told us it was "Orgasmic", we went out to some bar were some American 25 year old try to hit on Col, legend. After that we went strolling at night to see the city, had a quick chat with the police about the original position of David.

Day 19 - Tours and shit art...

So today we finally reached that tour, it was the same company that had done the tour in Hamburg and what we discovered was that they followed an almost identical format. We started with some funny stories about the Brandenburg and Paris square, including the infamous Michael Jackson "blanket" balcony, and some humerous stories about the French. We then moved on to the Reichstag and along the wall, checkpoint charlie, museum island and loads of other stuff. He finished with an epic story in which he told us how the wall fell. It was like 15 minutes long so no retell here.

We then tried to use our cards in a cathedral, but they didn't accept them, so we moved onto the gugenheim, which was crap. One piece was literrally a white sheet on white canvas on a white wall. Its not too good to look at really. I kinda left glad we didn't payt the old 3 euro in. We tried another museum which was also full, wtf.

We then headed back home to Alexanderplatz, and the hostel. The lads (mick and lorcan) went to bed for four hours and me and Col basically just bantered around the hostel playing the piano, singing "With or without you" and messing with people. The other 2 got up and we went out to Vapiano, the same chain of restaurant we visited the last day in Stockholm. I enjoyed the pizza it must be said.

Back home and Mick wanted sleep, we went to the bar for a bit, before also hitting the bed.
