museums...

Unfortunately, all the great places to take pictures in museums are camera free. I can't take one single picture inside. In addition to that sad fact, the outside of museums are rarely as wonderful as the inside. Such was the fact today. We went to the Uffizi museum (with masterpieces by Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, Boticelli, Raphael, and Caravaggio) and saw beautiful paintings. All I got were these pictures of the outside:


Then later in the afternoon, we went to the Galleria dell'Accademia, where the famous David is. I loved seeing that scupture. It is huge and looks like a real person. Michelangelo was an expert at sculpting detail down to the veins in his arms. Did I mention I am a sculpture fan?

The only picture I got was the bike taxi the boys took to meet us there at the Galleria.
