Ciao! Today we got a real good taste of the artistic culture in Florence! We visited the Uffizi museum!

| Dishes! |
The art works we have been seeing are amazing! It just blows my mind at the skills of these artist. Throughout the museum, my favorite work of art was the Birth of Venus by Botticelli! After the museum, we took a small break to go eat lunch. After lunch, we headed to the Medici house to go inside! It is called the Palazzo Pitti! The Medici bought the house in 1549! The house still contains many painting, jewelry, and dishes used by the family. It was once used by Napoleon as a base! It is now the largest museum in Florence!

Afterwards, we were heading to a church but, I cut my trip short to head back to the hotel to pick Schuyler up! She stayed behind to rest! We put our teamwork skills together to figure out the difficult bus schedule! We took a bus up to the top of Piazzale Michelangelo! Here, we watched a gorgeous sunset! Afterwards, we went back to our hotel to enjoy our nightly view before heading off to bed!
Today you saw some of the most famous art in the world. How might you integrate your knew knowledge and experiences in your future classrooms?
