Last day in Firenze

Tried to see Donatello's David In the Bargello but the workers are striking today as they also are at the Pitti Palace, home of Luca Pitti and then the Medici's. However, their gardens were open and the day was gorgeous so we spent hours in the Giardino di Boboli. They were designed in 1500 by Niccolo Tribolo for the Medici's. We climbed more stairs than the Accademia but the view of the Palace and of Venice was spectacular. At the highest point the vista was 360 degrees of the countryside and city, all the Medici kingdom. Then we had a leisurely lunch, clam linguini for Anita and spicy spaghetti for me in Piazza San Spirito. Lovely fountain in the centre, accordion players serenading and beautiful women riding through the square on bicycles. Great day for photos.
