Uffizi Gallery was built for the very powerful Medici family which eventually died out and left the museum to the city of Florence. It contains some incredible art such as Botticelli's Venus in the clam shell.
More on Uffizi
The kids took a great interest in looking for the belly button on Adam and Eve. Of course being the first humans, they should not have one, but I guess that was an oversight on the part of the artists of that time.
No visit to Florence would be complete without including the Ponte Vecchio bridge which was built by the Medici family as a private walkway for them to go from their palace to the Uffizi.

Finally home! After Europe, I've been missing home. I hope to see my
friends and go back to my usual life. So Ta-Ta For Now!
