This (yesterday, wednesday) was our museum and sightseeing day. We began by visiting Florence’s most famous bridge, Ponte Vecchio Nearby was the Uffizi Museum. Getting tickets was bit of a hassle… First we stood in the ‘reservations’ line thinking we could reserve our tickets. No, that line was for those who already made online reservations. We found the right line to get tickets, but I would be at least an hour long wait just to get them. And then once we obtained our tickets we would need to wait in another line to go through security and get entrance inside. For an extra €6, we joined some ‘friends of Firenze art preservation’ association. So not only can we add this excellent organization to our resumes, we were able to skip the ticket lines and go straight to the entrance line. Three cheers for art preservation!!!
