Florence, Venice and Lots More!

A few weeks ago we went to Florence. The first thing we did was go to the Duomo. A Duomo is an Italian word for Cathedral and dome. We went to the baptistry and then the actual church. When we were done looking at the church and the dome from the inside, we went to the very top of the dome. It was awesome! You could see almost the full city from up there. The next day, we went to Siena and went to another Duomo. We were hoping to go to the top of another tower, but it was closed. On our last day, we went to Pisa. Pisa is famous for the Leaning Tower of Pisa. We wanted to go to the top of the Leaning Tower, but we couldn't. The next time we could go up was when our train was leaving. It would been fun to go to the top of three towers, but at least we went up one.
