We were stopped in our tracks when we came round a corner and saw the 'Duomo' in front of us. It's the cathedral in the centre of Florence, with a green, pink and white marble facade. Totally stunning! Loads of lovely sites, and a few bars where we managed to sample a few local beers.

Lots more pasta and pizza was consumed (we're never going to be able to do enough cardio to get rid of all this!). The Hotel was lovely and the staff really nice. Saw the Vatican, Colleseum, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, the Bocca del Verite, the Sistine chapel, the Spanish steps, a good clothes shop with a great sale on!

Great hostel and we had to share with 4 other people and they ended up being 4 young Uni students from France. They were no trouble and very funny, had lots of laughs and miscommunications. Shared some drinks the first night and sleeped well. Second day was a full on day looking around the sites in very hot conditions.

We weren't quick enough to book sleepers for this trip so we had an uncomfortable sitting up road trip, which needless to say we were in fantastic moods when we arrived in Toulouse to find that the reception of the hotel we were staying at was not going to open for another hour.
