Climbing the Duomo

Last night we climbed up to the top of the Duomo (main cathedral in Florence) for some amazing views of the city. It was beautiful but it was also bitter sweet because it really brought my trip full circle considering I saw the Duomo almost as soon as I got to Florence and it was my first picture!

First Day in Florence, First Picture:

Half way up:


500 steps later:






Yikes, climbing back down, I did not like this part:


Paintings on the top of the dome:




Exams tomorrow!

Ciao for now!
