This morning I woke up in Florence only to hear a young lady in my room complaining about The lack of water. We soon found out there was no power either and all of Italy was affected. This meant nothing was going except buses, so I got to town but couldn't do anything because you can't see in an art gallery without the lights on. At 10.15am the power came back on and stuff started to open but the queue were worse and all the trains have their own timetable now (some were stuck in the middle of nowhere). I gave up on the Uffizi after a queue of an hour and a half and this was because the reservations queue needed police control! Otherwise I saw David and He was really, really impressive and I have an exciting night planned of laundry ahead :).
