There was a whole heap of cows in florence as painted by different artists.
We left Venice and got the train to Florence. It was really good there. We saw Michelangelo's David (three times, once the real one, twice full size replicas found around the town). We met a heap of people at the hostel (many many Australians), and made good friends with two Canadians. We went to Pisa as well and saw the tower, i never knew it leans so much! We also went to an exhibition of models as made from Leonardo Davinci's sketches. It was very interesting and informative and we learnt alot. The best bit about this exhibition was that it was hands on and you could see for yourself how it worked.
He invented ball bearings, i didn't know that!
