DAY 5: Florence

Everyday, i had to wake up at 6am to prepare to pack our bags and also have an early breakfast.

for breakfast, the set up was pretty simple, juice , hot chocolate and milk

On the way to florence, we stop by the gas station

Marvis is an italian brand and i have tried their cinammon toothpaste, not bad

Lunch at the gas station, chicken with wedges and veg

Really love the seafood salad filled with a medley of seafood such as prawns, squid, mussels...

The excitement has arrived, finally seen the breathtaking view of florence

checked in to our hotel FH 55 florence, which is not recommended as you will know later

The consolation, it is walking distance to the town centre!

One of the cities that took my breath away, standing in the piazza admiring the statues, wandering in the streets selling jewellery....

Rinascente is a luxury department store which have a few outlets all over italy

Do come here if you love fashion, there have a few floors ranging from bags, clothes, food etc

Chocolate and ??? i have forgotten the name of the yellow flavoured ice cream

Nice pastry for 5 euros

I wandered into Lush where they have body sprays which i have never heard of.

Its dinner time, and the tour did arrange a chinese meal for us.

Corn soup

stew pork

steamed fish

chicken, not recommended

FH 55 Florence is a huge hotel chain which caters to group tours, as with the other hotels i have visited

now, a situation arose as the bathroom glass door can't be shut and the railings have derailed... 

Overall, i do love florence as it isn't very crowded, do watch Medici Family if you are interested in getting a glimpse of the powerful family (take note that the TV show isn't 100% accurate)
