Today we enjoyed a free day to indulge in our own interests which ranged from museum visists, to the Ciompi flea market, to the Grape Festival in Impruneta and shopping. The day was capped off by nine of the ladies having dinner together at Regginella's where we were filled to the brim with good food and vino.

Medici Palace and David - Sept 25
In Florence today, we toured the Medici-Riccardi Palace this morning with it's lovely garden, beautiful rooms and the outstanding chapel. Then we were off to the Accademia Gallery. We were lucky to have a reservation as the line extended around the block. We were unable to take photos inside, but marveled at Michelangelo's famous statue of David. The afternoon was free for "whatever" and some of us had a nice dinner together at Trattoria Guelph in the evening.
