MILAN | FIRENZE | VENICE | ROME
   

FIRENZE, ITALY  
6 OCTOBER 2002

  
 

The day started by taking a train to Firenze at 720 from Milan Central Station. The Five of us, my self, Ramlah, Rosdi, Jamal and Azlan joined in a room with a Sicilian on his way to Napoli(a town by the sea). The trip was around 3 and half hours. Pretty far. We managed to keep each other company. Two Reader Digest and a handful of jokes later .. there we were.
 
 

DAVID was somehow closed, I had to settle with the replace in the Piazza.

Famous with its leather goods, it seemed to be of more interest to the group.

The five then bypassed the shopping area in order not to get lost and end up at Piazza Signoria. Here were some of the monuments..


Hercules and Cacus, Neptune,
Rape of the Sabines, David & friends

 

One of the many figures at the Galleria Degli Uffizi

In between shopping
and sight-seeing
   

LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, GOOD MORNING!!! After a few hard laughs on the train. We arrived back in Milan. The Eurostar was smooth though it appeared it was only slightly faster than the train before. So tired. Tomorrow Venice. Yet another story.
