Yesterday (Friday) we attempted to make our way to Florence. We got to the train station in Venice around 11, hoping to get to Florence by 1 or 2. Well, all of the machines in the train station were broken and there was only 1 window working to get tickets manually, so we waited in a line for over 2 hours to try and get tickets (while contemplating getting on the train without a ticket and just paying the fine) until I finally went to check a machine, and it somehow worked. Then a bunch of people came over because they saw I actually got a ticket. So we waited for another hour and a half to get onto our train, and it took almost 3 hours to get to Florence. Needless to say, we saw most of Florence in the dark. It was still really neat though. We saw the Duomo, which is amazing and the Basilica de Santa Maria Novella and many other Basilica's and David of course. It was cool.
