The way the train time panned out gave
us five hours in Florence - five pretty hectic hours.
Right, dump the bags, strap the tent on. God that
weighs a ton. Pizza. Pizza. To the main square. No,
this is the wrong square. I remember it. Pizza. Pizza.
This place is overrun with tourists. Here it is!
Pizza funghi. Due. Grazie, grazie. Munch munch munch.
I'm off to see the Uffizi. March march march. Hell
that man has a big ice-cream. Uffizi! That's a big
queue. A very big queue. Queue queue queue. Boring
boring boring. Ah where are you from? Ah, jolly
frustrating this queue. Rather. Stiff upper lip and
all that, eh? Ha ha ha. Queue queue queue. Queue
queue queue. Oh we're in. Another queue. Queue queue
queue. Have some money. How kind. At last! Culture
culture culture. Art art art. Birth of Venus.
Botticelli. Canaletto. Michelangelo. Haven't I seen
that before? Rush rush rush. Ooh very nice. Back
outside. Big ice-cream. Not as big as that man's.
River. ooh. Tower. Ooh. Cathedral. Ooh. Very busy.
Too many tourists. I am a tourist. Sigh. Need more
pizza. Grazie, grazie. E uno cappucino. Grazie,
grazie. Not much time. Where's the station? Rush rush
rush. Grab the bags. Rush rush rush. Half six, time
to go...
