Florence!

Florence is a very busy city. Though it is easy to get almost anywhere here on foot, there are tons of people every where. I do not have as hard of a time here communicating since many people know english. So far I have been to 4 museums and I am thinking of taking a few day trips to Lucca and Siena. Here are some pics, I will post as many as I can before I am kicked off the computer for the day :)

This is a picture from the Accademia Museum. I was only able to get one picture before I got into trouble :( The museum was amazing though.


These are at an old convent that has been made into a museum. The first one is the only picture I have of me so far. The rest are some of the artwork in the rooms throughout the museum. They seem like they are living quarters for the convent that were painted. Since I was not supposed to be taking pictures, I only got a few.







This was not in the rooms, but in a hallway outside the rooms.

I believe this also was in the hallway, but I cannot remember.

These images are from the Archeological Museum I went to next. They had less people watching for cameras so I was able to get a bunch of pictures.















This is a real mummy! Isn't that cool?
