Last Day in Florence

Today was our last day in Florence. I had an amazing time in Florence. It is a city of art and food! Probably one of my favorite cities so far on this trip.

Here’s a view of the Duomo’s bell tower in the late afternoon. We actually got to walk all the way to the top of the dome. It was a tiny winding staircase, and it was extremely hot and tall, but totally worth the view.

We also got to take a day trip to the Italian Riviera, where we visited the small seaside villages of Corniglia and Monterosso. We hiked along the coast, on a rocky trail, and then headed down to the beach. It was a very long walk, but the water felt great.

Our last day in Florence was spent on free time. It was rainy, which made the city look even prettier than normal.
