Saturday 21st February 2009, Florence
Phfffww, I've done it! I was late starting today, couldn't get going somehow, but it was another glorious day, so I walked out of Florence up into the hills beyond to Fiesole, quite a walk – and a climb, must have been between 10 and 15 km there and back.
It was lovely though, amazing how quickly, once you are out of Florence, which doesn't take long as it's only a small city, you are really in the Tuscany countryside. It's definitely spring here!
Look at the pictures! Shame it was so hazy, so you couldn't really see Florence very well – the Duomo was only just about visible in the haze. Easy day tomorrow, I think, knee will want a bit of a rest!
