 Florence, well we got in last night and we got it in around I think 10, 1030. Luckily our Airbnb was really close to the train station so we just walked on over here and yeah there was cobblestones so we had to like push our luggage through the streets but it wasn't horrible and the train station was very interesting because we got there like a good hour earlier. The train ended up being 20 minutes delayed and then also it doesn't tell you like what platform it's at until like 15 minutes out which was kind of stressing us out so that was interesting and then also you had to like pay for the bathrooms at the train station it was like one euro but it still kind of caught us off guard and I wanted to mention something about the toilets that I kept forgetting in the last vlog. I noticed that the toilets are so thin on the edges like you think that you didn't put the toilet seat down because it is just like kind of uncomfortable and I guess it's good because I feel like in America it's so comfortable that we sit there for hours. The first place we went to was Pottitano so I will have that vlog linked down below. There's two days of rain which unfortunately had followed us to Florence so today it hasn't rained yet but last night it was starting to rain once we got in and it says on the radar it might start raining at 1 or 12 so we have like three hours because it's currently 9 a.m. to go Seixi. This is literally right outside of our Airbnb Prada all these beautiful stunning designer stores and then the Duomo. It seems to be a long long line to walk up this thing. The views will be worth it. We got up all the way in front and realized we actually did have to purchase tickets. I thought it was free so there's tickets over there by the blue flags right here. Move your head you're blocking it right there and I was like there has to be a way to buy it online because the ticket line ended up being longer than the actual line to go in and so I finally asked the people in front of us and they helped us to get the tickets because it's not very like easy to buy them online but now of course the line is like moving so slow it's like 10 a.m. and the lines have like doubled since like we got here so definitely come early if you want to climb the tower and just see the Duomo. They only have one stairs like the people you come down on and we go up one. It's scary. It's like you're about to fall back. Now it's starting to rain so we're running out of umbrellas. We don't but we're going to try to find one. We just got done eating and we walked out and it's not raining thank God so we have a little pocket of peace. We're gonna go to the barber for Ryan because his what's it called? Beer trimmer. Beer trimmer. Blew up. A fuse broke in Positano so we're gonna get him all trimmed up. Got that Italian style. My neck shaved. I'm not gonna pay for it you know it's really cheap to get everything just shaved. Yeah. I'm gonna shave my neck and trim this. I need to get more euros too but I'm very thankful it stopped raining and the pasta was really good. We had eggplant parmesan and some truffle pasta. I feel like every corner is just so pretty here. You get lost very easily here because everything looks the same. Yeah. Like you turn the corner and it looks like you're in the same place as last one. So true. Yeah. We're gonna need about another suitcase to take all this back with us. I don't know what this area is called but there's so many leather goods everywhere. Everywhere. It never ends. It's a one hour wait. It's a appointment only apparently. No I thought he said no appointment. He said I don't have an appointment. So it's only one hour wait. Oh. You know what? He said appointments usually. I'm gonna prove this baby face sir. A little chubby boy. I know. And he said it was five euros right five euros. Yeah. I wonder if you got like a little design. Would it be more? He just saved it all off. It's eight o'clock. It's a little bit later and the sun as you can see is starting to peek out. It stopped raining just at 6 p.m. but I had a little bit of work to do. Ryan took a nap and so we yeah two naps and so we just chilled in the hotel room for a while but now we're gonna get some dinner. I'm not gonna be pasta or pizza. I'm kind of like over it. Ryan could definitely eat it for every meal but I think we're gonna go eat some Indian food. Ryan found this place on Yelp and it looks really good so we're gonna check it out. I forgot to say that we went to Zara earlier to try and find he a jacket or just like some long sleeves like literally just like a couple more layers but we couldn't find anything because they have all their spring styles out and so I'm just like literally layered up in Ryan's quarter zip. One of my sweaters, my other like turtleneck the only freaking sweater I brought. I mean it's not cold right now but if I didn't have all this on I'd definitely be cold. It's 53. It's 53 right now. I mean I'm so dramatic. I'm so cold. I don't know why I didn't bring more layers but I knew it just like wouldn't fit in the suitcase so it kind of sucks but moral of the story if you see that it's cold weather pack layers because you don't want to be miserable. We just saw this Eelie which we actually went to in Dallas if it's the same thing which I think it is because the branding looks very similar and it has a little store in and yeah that's cool. I'm so excited about this place because they have literally everything you could ever imagine so it's south and north Indian food but there's literally everything. There's first of all chicken lollipop, there's chicken 65 up here. Two favorites. We have literally every chicken curry you could ever imagine. Soup, ball, samosas, pop it on. I haven't had that in so long. Oh, mutton. Gotta get the goat. And we have all these vegetarian dishes. And you can have this which is what my dad always cooks me for breakfast. Oh man, this is where my mom's family is from, Carolina. So that's south Indian. And over here we have every biryani you could ever imagine. And every kind of bread so this one, chaffee, naan, roti, like goodness. I'm shook it. I've never seen something like this. Oh and all these lessies even roast lessie, like I've never even heard of that. And galabjama. Should we get that? What? You're a hater. It's so good babe. Up first, mango lessie. But no I know, up first today. Yummy huh? Lemon soda. Very interesting. I've had like, I think syrup or something like that. I thought I would put you to do that but it's not that. I think that's honey as local honey and hot lemon water with local honey. It's like Sprite with some like lemon seeds in it or whatever these seeds are. Chicken lollipop. Chicken 65. It is pretty much the same thing. Here's the butter chicken, Kerala mutton curry and some butter naan. Dinner was so good. It definitely hit the spot, what do you think? I know, Ryan gets a brownie point for that one. Now we're just kind of out and about walking around, burning off the calories. I was just telling Ryan I feel like I haven't walked this much in so long. This past like, whole week and climbed a lot of stairs. And we both didn't bring our Apple Watches. Phone tells me. Oh yeah, I wonder how many steps we've done today because we walked a lot. Right now it says we're at 12,008. I think it's less than that. We did a spiral staircase. It doesn't know you're doing that. Oh, that's less than what we did? I think it's higher. That equals out to like, so you think you've done more now than we did at the end of the tunnel? No, I think you did more now. Oh. I just had your dinner and then we did at the place. Oh, okay. The stairs, you know? Yeah. There were 438 steps, right? Oh, nice. Double your average. Good job. Wow, this is such a detailed report. My weekly highlights. Wow. Okay, okay. My average is 8,000, which doesn't seem right. Yeah. I don't do anything ever. Yeah. There are so many designer stores around here and I love looking at all of their window displays because they're so like, cool and interesting. There's like, hands and I don't know, just looks super cool. It's day 2 in Florence and it's our official last day here. And I finally put makeup on and actually did my hair because my face is feeling a hundred times better. They're still like texture, they're still like bumps, but it's not like as irritated as like the past two days. I literally don't know what happened, but I'm guessing it just got so freaking cold when we went to Ravello and just like the last few days of Positano. So like, I just feel like my skin just reacted to that because I've been using the same products that I've been using at home and it was perfectly fine. So I'm just blaming on the weather and hopefully from now on out it's going to be warmer and my skin's going to be better because that was not fun. I just feel like I didn't even want to talk. My lips were all like gross and it was just like so itchy and just like irritated. It sucked, but I kind of think I jinxed myself because I literally told Ryan. I was like, I really hope my skin doesn't like flare up on vacation also. I've had this dry patch on my neck and I've had eczema. Like I grew up having severe eczema. The last time I had like a super severe breakout was, I don't even know, like middle school maybe? And like, yeah, I've been eating a lot of dairy and they said I was allergic to dairy, but I eat this much dairy when I'm at home. So like, nothing's really different. Like I've been taking my lactate pills, but I have like another flare up on the other side of my neck and I'm like, I just hate this. So again, I'm blaming it on the weather, but I'm feeling 100% better today and the rain has kind of cleared. There's like literally like an hour where it says 30% today in Florence. So I'm thanking God for that and just praying that Venice tomorrow is the same. Just like clear up. So we're going to go out for some coffee for Ryan and I was thinking maybe like crepes. We'll see what we can find. Yesterday Ryan got brownie points for taking me to Indian restaurant. It was so good. So today he's taking me somewhere else that he found. And I love this. You should do this more often. You should do this in Austin. Yeah, that's true, but I feel like in Austin I definitely have more of like my favorites, yeah, my opinions and stuff, but it definitely makes it easier. When we were in Pasatano, we actually had quarantine steak, which is like a delicacy here in Florence. So that's why we're not eating it here because we already had it and it was just kind of like any other steak. I think that one guy at a restaurant said that the difference is that like it's really rare inside. I was just telling Ryan how cool would it be if there was like a custom setting to just bring up the iPhone camera really quick. Like tapping something three times or something like that because I feel like I always see something that I want to take photo of or video of. And it's like like the moment is gone by the time I get my freaking camera to open. One double tap would be... That is so cool. Does it actually work? So let's try it. But what if it's lost? Because I wanted to be like, oh, it has to be unlawed. Great show. Okay, so... This is not working at all. Well, that's cool. Okay, oh, I guess I just have to tap it really hard or something. It's not even in the right place. Oh my god, that's so cool. It did it, guys. It's an accessibility. It can like customize the double tap. Yeah, that's really cool. Yeah, but it depends on you. I told me that software is the end of World War II and defeating the Nazis. It's so much busier than yesterday since it's a holiday. And there's like this huge line. We kind of think it's for the tower, but it might be just for the Duomo. But it literally keeps on going, which is kind of crazy. We're coming up on a piazza. How far are we from breakfast? Nice. Look at this. Apparently the cafe we're going to is in this museum right here. Cafe Del Vrong. Cafe is only open at 12. Probably because it's a holiday. Yeah. This is the menu. I guess there's only drinks and maybe a pastry or two. And there's also cocktails, so if you want to come here later. Let's see. They have a mojito. It's insane. It's insane. I know it's really quiet. We just got seated. We're whispering. I got fresh squeezed orange juice. And we got pastries. Not really sure what they are, but we'll see. It's very light. It just literally tastes like... Wait. It literally tastes like a marshmallow and what's that? Cereal? I got what the charms taste like. It's very dry. Isn't it? This is just like a shortbread cookie. You get more brownie points for this one. Good job. We're going to get pizza now. We're just eating in Florence, but that's how we like to do traveling. Just eat everything in sight. We're going to get pizza because they don't really have food here. We got the pastries, but they didn't really suffice. We're definitely going to need some fuel for today. And Ryan has a call later, so we have to go back to the Airbnb. I'm going to do some work and then we're going to go to Piazza Michelangelo. That's what it's called. And then there's like a rose garden there. Hopefully it's really pretty because it's like spring right now. So I'm hoping they're bloomed. And then there's also I think a church over there to see. So we're going to do that later, but first pizza. It's gotten really cold all of a sudden. So we're like bundled up. Literally like five minutes later. So that was a much expensive place we've eaten yet. Yeah. And we just got a coffee. Orange juice with two little cookies. How much was that? That was 17 euros. And the other night I think the first night we got to Florence, we literally got two pizzas, beer, Sprite for $17, right? It was 17. There's 17 euros. Even when we would go to like a nice Italian place yesterday, everything was 50 euros. No, it was like 35 or something. Yeah. Pretty cheap. Yeah. The Indian place. The Indian place. It was like five dollars. So it was like two. Yeah, the cocktails here are pretty cheap at that place. They were like kind of like, yeah, normal price, just like Austin. But I feel like things here are pretty affordable for food at least. I guess it depends on where you go. No, it's definitely this way. Where am I going? Ryan bought literally like five car heart shirts for this freaking trip. And look at that. They have their own storefront in Florence. Okay. Well, these look better, but like the t-shirts you bought, it just wasn't a vibe. And now we're in the stores and I want everything. Like I've never seen all of this before. I literally just want to buy it all. Also Sherpa sandals. Soul. Soul. Texas would do that. Yeah. It's going to be way too hot for them, but I love them. So I don't know if I can buy a designer bag, but kind of loving these brown belts with the gold symbol. I just don't know if I like Louis Vuitton, but I'm literally wearing a gold belt today. It just is from Amazon. I'm pretty sure. But like, I think it would be so cute to have like a really nice designer belt. I'm getting this for Sophie. Okay. You good with that? Yeah. We'll split it. She would die. Okay. Can I have this in my house, please? It's humongous. It's crazy. Bitch. Bitch. I think. Rich. Water. There's so many watches all over this place. Ryan's in love, huh? I know you're filming. What do you have on right now? Rolex. Rolex? I want this blue. Blue numbers. Ooh. Rings. This is Ryan's dream wedding. That's what I have to get instead of my wedding ring. When we get married, sir. When we get married. You and I get married. Apparently. I'm going to get married. It's my day. No, it's my day. We were just at Ponte Vecchio bridge, and so we just crossed over. And this time it's so cute. Like, I love it. We're going to head to the Rose Garden first, and then the Piazza Michelangelo to see like the really nice view. This is such a vibe right here. I don't know where we're eating dinner, but maybe we can find somewhere over here on the side. It's really pretty. It's a game changer that the sun is out, so we're really, really hoping that the sun stays out the whole rest of our trip. It was a vibe when it was raining, but like it's so pretty and blue and just green. But we have some bad news. We aren't able to see the David statue because all the tickets are sold out. So pro tip, buy your tickets before you even come on the trips because I don't know how many they allow, but we're going to definitely look at some Rome tickets because we have like five days until Rome. There were some tickets like literally the day after we leave, which sucks, but oh well, we'll just have to come back to Florence. This is stunning. Look at this view. And it's taking a little nap-itizer. Some people have brought snacks too. There's the phone. The view just keeps getting better the more up we go. We are just taking some lens buddy photos, you know, setting up the phone. Self timer, Ryan. Yeah, they are. He just freaking pretended like he was going to propose to me. And you know what? When I was getting my freaking nails done, everyone was like, do you think he's going to propose? I'm like, anyways, we're not getting married any time soon, everyone. Okay. Just kidding. We're too young for that, you know? I love you. Drinks up here are those spritzes. And then five euros. This is perfect because if you walk up through the Rose Garden, you get to Piazza Michelangelo, which is probably the best view in Florence. How many people are here? Oh my God. He's lucky he's tall. You're lucky you're tall. I'm saying I'm going to go up with your camera. Maybe. These restaurants are just like little drink places, right? On the views. Well, this isn't really a vibe for them. I was just thinking you're sitting right here and have all these people right here in front blocking the view. Kind of sucks. We're going to get a sprite. Sounds good. Ooh, is that Orangina? We should get that. Oh wait. What is that? What's the orange one? What's that one? Fanta? What the f- Why does it look like that? It changed the shape. Any cheers? Yum. Thank you. We made it up. I guess you can park up here. There's all these street vendors. This is where we ended up stopping to eat. Such a vibe out here. Okay. We got some wine. Came in these bottles. Yeah, fuck. Is this beer? This place is actually called Kulazo Tempe. Right here. Now that's not what I said. I said Terazo Soprano. I don't know why. But I think this is what I'm going to get. Garlic, olive oil, chili pepper, breadcrumbs on parmesan cream. Sounds delicious. This is the first thing we got. So we ordered a Moscato, but why isn't it a whiskey glass? It's kind of freaking me out. I'll try to order wine wrong again. There we go. That's like the sweetest Moscato. Yeah, I was in the nightcap section. So it's literally a dessert wine, I think. I don't know. Maybe I should just stop or anything because I don't know what I'm doing. Final attempt. We got some red wine. You think this is it? Okay. Let's try it. I just don't know. Full glass in. It's wine. It's wine? It's wine. It's not a beer. Okay. But like, I don't know, I'm like not a big wine drinker, so. He's told not to leave me. Why are you so fucking mean? I've been away. He's across the street. He left me. I need crosswalk. You're mean. Look how pretty this is. Dinner was yummy. What do you think? It was very good. What should I do? You know what the Kubrick. The most expensive meal we've had, right? Stand back. In Florence. Yeah. It's the Kubrick's thing. Okay, babe. Okay. All right. Let's go home. What do you think? Do you want to walk around? I'm so fucking cold. Yeah. A hot shower. I think it's time to go home. We're leaving in the morning, saying bye to Florence. We were here for two days and just want to thank God. Shout out because he made the blue skies appear last day. And really praying that he pulls through for Venice. It's supposed to be raining tomorrow, but then the next day, it's supposed to be sunny, but we're literally there for 24 hours. Then we go to Rome, which is my favorite, because I did this two weeks study abroad thing in Rome. Totally a local. Oh my God. I'm such a local. No, I'm kidding. But I did something with EF learning tours, I think. It's maddened. What? Huh? Is this an ad? No, it's not an ad. But it was back then. They actually sponsored my trip. I got blowed out to Italy and paid for it. It was like, literally insane. Both my parents thought it was a scam, but it was not a scam. But it was the coolest thing. I'm really excited to go back to Rome and show Ryan Rome. And it's just been really special being here with Ryan. Because I always dreamed about trying to give a wedding speech right now. What? You even know a wedding speech right now? Yeah, I'm giving a little speech right now. A little glass of wine and I'm just like, I don't want to say all my words. So, yeah. You had like four glasses of wine. This is like a dream. What? You had like four glasses of wine. I did not. I did not. I barely drink it. Guys, I don't think my taste buds are like, ready for this. Tequila, soda, tapachica. I don't think you drink. Yeah. I'm a tequila kind of gal. But, I'm also Texas. Even in the other Italy vlogs, like when I was here for that Rome thing, I was so sad because I was like, shit, I'm going to Italy. I don't even like really like wine. I don't like the spritz thing. I had a spritz. It was disgusting. Ryan loves them. But they taste like cough syrup to me. And one of my friends that I was just with, she was like, oh, it kind of tastes like a grapefruit. And I'm like, the most bitter grapefruit you've ever fucking tasted. It's a tequila grapefruit. You have the white part of it. It's literally disgusting. They're stunning. I love the way they look. So, I literally stole her spritz for a photo. I don't know who you're in, but I took a sip, I counted. I took a sip, I counted. Like pasta, carbonara. Yeah, I'm really excited for Rome, but first Venice, and that'll be tomorrow. So, I'm really excited. I guess we'll end the vlog here. Stay tuned for more. Subscribe down below. And follow me on Instagram. I'm not sure what we're coming up on, but I see a lot of statues with their things out. But I don't think Mr. David's here. I'm gonna have to pay to see him. So, but this is pretty cool. I mean, like, I mean, that kind of looks like him right here. These men are really toned, huh? Sophie, is that you?
