The end to a perfect day in Venezia
I got upgraded!
29. oktober 2024, Italien ⋅ 🌙 14 °C
The rooms (and bathrooms, especially) have been tiny, and noisy, and smelly. I put up with it in Milan, but Lido was too moldy, so I complained. Omg, what an upgrade!

So. Much. Art & Beauty! Political & Religious Power. Medicis, Borghias & Sforzas. Michelangelo, DaVinci & Botticelli. Cathedrals, Museums & Castles. Leather, Gold & Perfume. I love Florence!
RejsendeI think we were only in Florence for a night or two, mostly went to museums to see the famous paintings and sculptures!
RejsendeSame here, Barb. But our stroll at night, ending with a delicious dinner...and 3 pound steak split 3 ways, was a highlight. Everything looked better at night...especially the Duomo.
