A Day in Florence

          A day in Florence 

We are in Florence for a month YAY! :) This is what one of our days looked like. We went out to the other side of the Arno River to meet a friend and go into a church (where Galileo and Michelangelo are buried), but it was closed. But we also saw people setting up for a master chef Italy show! It was pretty cool. Then since the church was closed we went back to our side of the river and got gelato. I got chocolate and banana flavors, it was yummy. Then we climbed a mountain to see dad's favorite church in Florence but that was closed too. Even though I didn’t enjoy the climb, the view was pretty, especially when I looked out of a telescope.

Later we went back to the first church and it was open now. We went inside and saw all the graves. It was actually kinda cool. It took us a little while to find Galileo's grave but we found it. I could not find Michelangelo’s grave (not the ninja turtle), but my mom pointed it out to me. Then my mother, brother and I sat down to wait for dad and our friend. While we were waiting Owen scratched one of his bug bites and it started bleeding. Luckily, I had my bag and my first aid kit and gave him a bandaid.

Then we went to a plaza with a carousel that I had gone on four years ago, last time we were here. And of course I went on it. After going on it twice we went to a bookstore and my dad got a coffee.

Then we went to a different plaza that we had gone to the day before and went into a building that we had also gone to four years ago.  We took some pictures that we had taken last time. Then I saw a piano and played a song by memory. There was a group of teenagers who saw me play and they clapped for me. Overall it was a good day in Florence.
