The End

Our bus leaves Florence in about 3 hours. We'll be heading to Rome and will catch a plane there. I should be home sometime Tuesday night, but I'm not sure exactly when. I'll miss Italy. I love it here, but I'm also exhausted at this point and need a break. Five weeks of non-stop travel and adventure can really take a lot out of you.

This will be my last post from Italia. I have thousands of pictures and hours worth of video, so I'll always have those to refresh my memory. I won't miss the keyboards though, that's for sure.

Transformers

I caught the world premiere of The Transformers at the Odeon in Florence last night, several days before it comes out in the US. It was fantastic and much better than I expected it to be. When you get a chance definitely go see this movie.

Today's Italian city is Siena. I consider it a letdown. The piazza is nice, the tower above it ooverpriced, and the city rather boring. Others gave it a reputation as being a beautiful Italian town, but it looked pretty much just like the other smaller towns I'd already visited. It isn't bad, but wasn't worth taking a day to visit.
