Florence - Boboli

 The last day in Florence, we took it easy in the morning. Celene went looking in shops, and I finished the painting I started un San Gimigniano.

In the afternoon we went to the large Boboli Garden, with its numerous walkways, statues, and some open space. 

From the entrance we went straight up to the Gentleman's Pavilion, which great views of the countryside just outside Florence. 

As we walked through the park there were were artistic performances happening, with music and narrated modern dance. It was part of the Apocalyptic theme of the exhibition at Pitti Palace, and was interesting that it used strong religious themes.

We walked through the rest of the park, which actually looked like it hasn't been maintained well: the statues are dirty, etc.

The weather had gotten hot again, so we went back to the hotel to rest a bit before going for dinner at a very popular restaurant that we had made reservations for.

After that we walked around at night, over the Ponte Vecchio were the same street performer we'd seen before was playing guitar and singing Italian songs.
