Florence was a very cool place except there are lots and lots of people. For example, we attempted to see David but the ‘skip the line’ line was longer than the regular line; and the regular line had a couple thousand people in it. If you are claustrophobic, this isn’t the venue for you. It reminded me of Bourbon Street on Fat Tuesday. This is the way for many of the major attractions. We just took pictures from afar and skipped the hassle.
