Today is the third full day in Florence, and for the past 2.5 I've looked about the city, and quite honestly am a little sick of doing that.
The easiest place to get to for a small day trip seemed to be a little place slightly north of Florence on a hill of green, called Fiesole.

It was a short, and cheap, bus ride up there and back again.
The town was cute, and a close hill to the bus stop guided the way to a beautiful view of Florence.

 

 

 Kelvin, as always.

 

 Bit of an awkward smile, just embrace it.

 

 

 Streets and houses of Fiesole

 

 

Guard dogs. There are a lot of massive huge expensive mansions.

Little portraits of the buildings are commonly placed on the fences outside the houses. It was really cute.

 

I also sat and relaxed reading for a bit of time out, under beautiful shaded trees.

Its good to sit back in the shade without the noise of the city or hostel.

 

 

Today it is at least 35degrees C.

This made the trip to Fiesole quick, leaving at around 12.30pm and being home after 1pm.

The heat is exhausting, with little shade and NO cool breeze to help.

Its nice to have warmth, but its also nice to sit back in some air conditioning.

 

I plan on heading out a bit later in order to try and find some beautiful hand made leather sandals from Florence.
