A wet day in Florence...A Museum and Church day...

We knew the weather was going to be bad today.... and it was heavy rain as we left to go out.

Our first visit was to the Florence National Museum

Amazing museum to visit and so much to see.

 erm erm... tis raining!

A saddle made from leather and bone

an intriguing keyboard instrument...

Many of these made from painted/glazed terracotta... beautiful colours

Off for a coffee watching sparrows eating :)

and then to Santa Croce

and finally (more pics to come) a visit to the Branacci Chapel
