For many years I have dreamt of standing in front of the statue of David marveling over his magnificence. There would be no better day to do this than on my own birthday, however, that day happens to be on a Saturday. Not an ideal day to visit tourism wise, but I am hoping that because the following day is the first Sunday of the month, perhaps a number of people will opt to visit on that free admission day. My goal will be to book the first slot of the day, at 8:15am.
I will have 3 full days in Florence and below are on my must see:
Accademia
Uffizi
Duomo (purchasing the 3 day Brunelleschi's Pass)
Basilica Santa Croce
Basilica Santa Maria Novella
Pitti Palace/Boboli Gardens
Medici Chapels/Church of San Lorenzo
Bargello
Palazzo Vecchio
Palazzo Medici Riccardi
I'd welcome advice on which other of these attractions I could add on to make up a full day of sightseeing for my 60th birthday.
Thanks in advance!
