April 17: Farewell to Florence

We packed up and headed out to the Bargello Museum this morning to be impressed one last time by the sculptures of Michelangelo.  After a last wander around the piazza and a very overpriced gelato, we took a cab to the airport and flew to Gatwick.  The train brought us into London, and then it was a beautiful ride past Buckingham Palace and Trafalgar Square to our hotel, the Hilton London Eustace.  We managed to get in touch with Kathleen and Alanna and will be picked up for our tour in the morning, and Ian and I went to a pub in Euston Station, while Alanna and Kathleen went to a pub near their hotel.  More words and pictures later!
