Vagabond Artist

When people used to ask me when was the best time to come to Florence and suggest Easter as an answer I would try to tell them that Easter is the worst time to come to Florence. It is packed with hoards of tourists. 4 hour lines to get into the uffizi. Taxi's are unavailable, restaraunts are packed. It is almost impossible to walk down the street. No, it is impossible. Usually the weather is terrible but not this year

I have nothing against tourists I am one alot of the time, at the moment I feel like a tourist in Florence, just walking around feeling useless in the town where all my work was for 21 years, all my life. Not knowing where to go to go to the bathroom when before I didn't even have time to go to the bathroom; wanting to take a nap because this hot sun and bright light are tiring after being in pARIS the grey city of light. The emotions of coming back and seeing all my friends and my lovely jack russell have exhausted me and i am ready to go home to Paris. Funny, home to Paris.
