It was an early start for us this morning as we had to be on the quay side for 815am. After a hearty breakfast and some queuing to get off the ship and on to the bus we wound our way through Tuscany to the first part of our tour in Florence. We arrived at about 1015 and were greeted by a very quiet and kinda odd tour guide who we couldnt really hear or understand so pretty much just followed her around and took in the sights of Florence - statues, churches and the stunning view of the river. Although this first part of our day was a little dissapointing from a 'tour guide' perspective the city was very pretty and we enjoyed the morning and early afternoon.
After lunch, where we got told off for being served our coffee last (our fault of course and nothing to do with the waitress eh ?!?!?) we headed for Pisa. This took about 1 hr 20 mins. Once in Pisa we had about 45 mins to look at the leaning tower, the church, other buildings and to do some souvenier shopping. This was just about enough time to see everything, get some pics and buy some bits and bobs.
We then headed back to our coach, via the many 'lookie lookie' men who were trying to sell fake bags, watches etc, and wound our way back through Tuscany to our port in Livorno, which is such a pretty port (?!?!?!) lol
Anyway, we are off to seek some evening entertainment and get an early night before heading off to Rome tomorrow :)
Speak soon
