This day had two days. There’s a separate entry for the evening. The highlight of this day for me was the sculpture of David. But there are the little known paintings of the front and back of Larry Feldman. I think I’m a little taller.

When I look at my pictures, I know some of these are very famous. Some are from the Uffizi Museum and some from the Accademia di Belle Arti.

It doesn’t seem right that this is all I’m posting from two of the best museums in the world. I had two great guides who explained so many things. Sometimes though, you have to appreciate the fact that at the time it was amazing even if little of the details remain.

The tour company is really good. they know their stuff and they have many special perks they pull off like getting into the Sistine Chapel at 8 AM when few people are there and going to the dungeons of the Coliseum. You can look them up at italywithus.com

We spent quite a bit of time just looking at David. Someone had to make the joke that he was planning to look like David after another year or so at the gym. No one else stepped forward in the tour so it had to be me making the joke. David is stunning. Even I could tell that this was world-class.

I don’t remember seeing him from the side or especially from the back. He is impressive from all sides.

It felt good to be in these museums with great guides from italywithus.com. The company does have the best tours.

Even though I’m not good with color, the stories behind the pictures meant for an enjoyable day. I couldn’t say the art was unforgettable because I’ve already forgotten most of the stories but the feeling of being there is unforgettable.
