Another day of discovering the sites of Florence. In the afternoon we took a long walk over to the Santa Croce (pronounced cro-chay) church - stopping for some gelato along the way. We toured the church, museum and leather school. Santa Croce has hundreds of people buried inside the church including Michelangelo and Galileo (who lived under house arrest for defying the Church by stating that the earth was round). We saw a portion of St. Francis' robe and many wonderful works of art. The leather school was interesting - situated in what was once the living quarters for the Franciscan monks. It was creaed by the monks after World War II to give war orphans a trade. Tomorrow Bobbie, Terry and I are off to Venice. More Later!
