European Vacation Part 5: Florence and Cannes
June 30th, 2009 || Pictures, Travel || 1 Comment » ||
I definitely did not get enough time in Florence. The day was so hot and we only had a few hours, so we just went to the Basilica di Santa Maria, did a bit of street shopping, and then had pizza at a cafe. But we did get to stop at Piazza Michelangelo and take some scenic pictures of the city, which is so incredibly beautiful! Next time I go to Florence I am definitely taking several days to see everything.
On the last day of the cruise we stopped in Cannes for a little while, and Helen and I took a bus tour of the French Riviera (which is basically a glorified beach resort). Not much to impress, but we did see the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès where they hold the Cannes Film Festival, so I pretended that there were celebrities nearby. (I have a good imagination.)
And that concludes Joy’s European Vacation Extravaganza! The cruise itself was so much fun (I won the karaoke contest!), and, of course, Europe was fantastic! Just enough to get a taste and convince me that I have to go back as soon as possible!
