Day 7: June 24, 2019
Early in the morning we've left Florence form Pisa. We've taken the Firenze Mare A11 motorway and travelled west towards the Tyrrhenian sea and the beautifull Italian cost.
We've taken pictures of the Piazza dei Miracoli where the Leaning Tower, the Cathedral and the Baptistery are located. Our local guide Laura has told us the story of Pisa: all those magnificant monuments were built during the peak of power and welth of the Pisano Maritime Republic back in XII century.
We've travelled back to Florence arriving just on time to enjoy the local feast of San John, the patron Saint of this fantastic city. We've walked along the Arno river and enjoyed our gelato in the area of the majgor monuments and famous galleries the Piazza Signoria. We loved every moment of it: an outstanding experience! We strolled around the Saint Lowrence Market area and topped our perfect day in Tuscany with an excellent meal.. Later tonight the fireworks will take place on the major panoramic terrace of Florence: the Michaelangelo's Square. Magic!
