Tuscany Live! Day 3

Today we leave the Tuscan countryside for Florence. Chris and I have been there, but last time we missed one museum (the name escapes me of course). It's a popular museum and one we've been told is a must-see. It's also such a tourist attraction that you can wait over two or three hours in line to get in. In addition, even the on-line reservations sell-out. So that's where we'll be today at 2 p.m. after checking into our hotel next to the Duomo.

From there, I believe Mark and Greg will venture off to explore other museums (as they've never been there) while Chris and I walk the city stopping at every gelato stand so Chris can sample. Later, we have dinner reservations at "Quatro" something. It was an amazing restaurant where Chris and I ate a few years ago so we're hoping it's just as good tonight for the four of us as it was back in 2005.

We then return to Munich tomorrow on an 8:30 a.m. flight. It was the cheaper of the departures out of Florence. Besides that, we both don't like to loiter around - instead opting to get up and get going. Of course, I wish we didn't have to get going so early as 6 a.m. is early for Dave Lutman. But when a few dollars are involved, why not?
