20 days alone go Europe (11) Florence

Friday 26 September (11 days)

Morning before the check-out, which is about to leave in the afternoon.

The luggage there downstairs, eat something, then go to the Michelangelo of the bus. Okay, from where I live is not very far away. Mountain high, surrounded by dense clumps of green, the left hand side just yesterday I saw in the Bi-Te Palace of the Italian gardens in the hills behind.

Rapid farewell to Miss Ukraine Hafez

Car in the top of the platform, this is the Michelangelo square (Piazzale Michelangelo), the most distinctive signs here is that Milosevic masterpieces of copies of the "David".

From here to the opposite, you can see the Bell Tower and the Orange large dome, is a site of Peugeot's vision of Florence. I have some regrets come not to catch the last night, when the bright red of the clock tower and Arch dad standing as red, should not in the Tower, which is here.

Arnaud River because of the River in the heart of the bridge and immediately appear different, river water is blue, reflected a brick red building, like being mixed with some paint.

From a distance, not like the whole river is the River, but rather a splashing into thick pulp.

From here and then ride around to Arnaud River right bank, visit the monastery of San Marco (Convento di San Marco), specifically to see the article "bright turning Gallery", I said with information, that the turning Gallery has a lot of character, but the scene makes me disappointed.

Florence is also a lot of square, such as guest, Republic square, municipal Plaza, Plaza surrounding often seen with a Colonnade of the building, it is worth watching closely. Municipal square some cafes, is a good place to let. [DSCF0513 in heaven's door] I also specifically to return to the opposite of Baihua Cathedral to pay their respects the baptism Chapel of the "heaven's door", two golden door is divided into ten blocks, use the Emboss way tells the story of the Bible, this is a local painter, Kyrgyzstan was (Lorenzo Ghiberti) was completed in 1452, however, the Church of the two doors is a copy of the original has been collecting Art Museum in Ukraine Hafez.

Passing an ice cream shop, preceded by the two visitors are buying.

The ice cream girl are generous, pick up an egg roll gave to stuffed, spoon a Tim Tim again. I am delighted. Behold two middle-aged man was not appreciated, too full, the result put a second time only, Miss abstinence. It was my turn, only to have a reduced fat ice cream. Is a bit disappointing, regret not robbed in the two eccentric ahead. But it tastes good.

Because of the fear that there is not enough space for digital cameras, I'm going to find an Internet cafe to burn down the photos.

The roadside saw a house in the shift of technicians to later came back and had to spend 1 euro for 20 minutes on the net, this price is not bad. There are a few letters, one letter is Kevin, he said that he was that day would take me to the Latin quarter, and my mind are all on the big rock.

Rapidly after the letter again, got up and rushed to the Bi-Te Palace opposite, yesterday the specialized attention too, there are Internet cafes.

Fortunately, my disc soon carved. Might have to worry about software incompatibility, roommate told me to take on a special camera comes with the software of output photos, in fact, you don't, the boy directly to memory cards come into his camera and all problems disappear. Finished these, take a look at the time of late, hurried back took luggage miss 4: 00 pm, at the station of the train and eat an ice cream, possibly because the previous ice cream eating good sake bar. But the taste was on the verge, obviously, the water.

This ultimately did not go to the Art Museum of Ukraine Hafez, but do not think there is too much, perhaps because in Rome to eat much, some of it is eating.

Or, save some nianxiang, next time.

Don't the, Florence.

A bit of a hurry. Here, I couldn't find the feeling of desire to leave Rome before, small winding said her disappointed on this city, "I wonder if you would like, and they don't feel the same for everyone. ”

It should be said, Florence and my imagination is not the same, I'm surprised it's so crowded.

In contrast, I also love to Arnaud Transnistrian Florence, it is essentially a more close to the origin of the Renaissance, where you can breath, thought, you can search for you. Those who pass by culture, today only may be over, but could not be pursued, where it to find the a view room "of Florence? this is my own mistakes.

Padova

"Congratulations!" my retirement!

Fire truck I go is Padua (Padova) — — a real city, but I don't know anything about this yet, only a mental note of that place is not spending money.

Free accommodation is set in Rome.

For this trip, I also do other aspects of the preparation. Because about Esperanto, so try to go through the place to find some Esperanto friends. In the United Kingdom sent some emails to Italy of Esperanto, tell them to stay in place, asking friends can provide accommodation for me. Before leaving only received a few letters are not on my line. Subsequently, enthusiastic people put me through Italy esperantist Communications Group sent out to so many letters received, one of whom live in Padova of said, him away from Venice, take the train as long as half an hour, he'd received me. See, this is a letter format letter, the letter said that he received many Esperanto friends, according to the usual practice, he will be in the evening 8: 30 to go to the station's no. 1 pick up window; also referred to the food problem, it is recommended that you go to the railway station, because canteens where food prices are quite reasonable. I saw the Roman letter the next day and he used the telephone contact, in order to facilitate the admission of the "phase", and that my sincerity, also made a piece on photos. This means that I not only save the accommodation in Venice, but also save the accommodation in Florence, because, according to the previous plan, I'm in FlorenceStay two nights, then the morning ride to Venice, observers to stay another night over there. Surfing in Florence, that man has given me back a confirmation letter, the letter is very short, a sentence is: "congratulations! I have retired!", he made an exception to meet me at the time of one hour in advance.

For this trip, I also do other aspects of the preparation. Because about Esperanto, so try to go through the place to find some Esperanto friends. Esperanto territories have a tradition that is spontaneously to esperantist travel assistance, mainly for the provision of free accommodation. To this end, the international Esperanto Association annual out a roster that is printed with all parts of the volunteer's mailing address and contact information, they are willing to provide convenience for the visitor, the premise is that Exchange to use Esperanto. And the beneficiaries, have an obligation to provide the convenience of others, but this kind of mutual service is not a one-to-one, nor forced nature, this should say embodies the Esperanto "for the world to become a family," a concept.

In the United Kingdom sent some emails to Italy of Esperanto, tell them to stay in place, asking friends can provide accommodation for me.

Before leaving only received a few letters are not on my line.

Connect the signal

7: 20 to Padova,.

This is one I haven't heard of. First-day-ticket-side Queuing to buy tickets to Venice will return "1 ticket window" really got personal, the man is reading the newspaper. I walked over, he also put the newspaper moves away from the face. We almost at the same time found each other while greeting connected. This strange friends named Kocian Carlo. Thunder that Erdoğan, has retired from the railway system, is a very kind man, aged 60 years or so. He said he didn't eat, gently invited me to the nearby railway catering to eat something. We would like to fish, vegetables, pasta and bread, talk over dinner, bread is also dry and brittle, was I get Office off the dregs, demeaning.

Temporary leave, old Lei see restaurant racks on a satchel, and ran over to the left to see the right, then go to the waiter, I do not know what to ask.

After a while back, the bag and I'm out the door. He told me that this bag is very familiar, he suspected he landed here, the waiter said, packages have been hung up here for a week. Old mine like analysis of the merits of the ins and outs as looking bag has two old ticket, it seems that he used; he remembers that he has such a package, a number of days not to see it. ... Old Lei hard thinking, talking to herself, immersed in the magical mood. I walked next to him, the more incredible, does his bag is too much?

Old mine House not far from the station, as long as ten minutes.

After a cafe, he invited me to go in for a drink, because this is my compatriots. I went in with him, but didn't drink, afraid to sleep. There's the boss and the waiter is Zhejiang, with old mine very well, they told us this strange friends full of curiosity. Boss scholar, wearing glasses, he told me that they also saw another old Lei, Chinese friends. For a time, few people are in Italian, English and Esperanto, we'll have to talk to each other. After the old mine told me that the coffee is not cheap, "there are many Chinese, the Chinese people are not cheap, they are very rich. "He said.

Old mine Home Street, is a two-story house, in the living room, entrance hall and is followed by a kitchen, study and bathroom, and a little garden; the second floor, there is a left, the right hand side between the bedroom and a bathroom.

In addition to his study, extremely simple and tidy the room furnishings, a bit of extra stuff, a bit like barracks. My living room are two big wardrobe separates into two parts, each has a single bed and a bedside table, a formal "hostel." Wood floor bed wood furniture, wooden staircases, and Windows are made of wood. Old Lei said, this is the old House, in his decoration to some subsidies, but the request must keep the original style, cannot be altered. For this, he didn't spend less, because the Government give money is not enough.

Fog, see Padova

To lay down their luggage, and old mine to show me around Padova city.

Goodwill had to obey the difficult. He first introduced two bikes, unfortunately front beam is too long, I can manage not to really sorry for his kindness, and only on foot.

Night, can see the old city walls black darkened shadow, feet is an ancient stone-paved road.

Old mines, the old town in the 13th century, Padova University history, is one of the best universities in Europe, in particular its science. Astronomer Galileo has taught here.

> Turn to turn to the Padua University teaching building of the former, and not much, maybe the part of the campus. Vaguely from floor came the melodious sound of music, we turned into the second floor of the Hall in the charitable concert, a String Quartet group, very young musicians, like the students. Old mine bought two tickets, we go in looking for a place to sit back. Seat settee is long, the Hall is not a modern building that kind of formal Hall, I don't even remember it there is a stage, in short, very casual. But the old mine is not a band I came to the concert, but let me see the murals on the walls. The mural is very quaint, and enjoyable, color coordination, let me again saw Italy's color. Since the 80s for too long, the picture slightly mottled, some parts of the walls have come off, thus accentuating its prestige. Old Lei gesticulates enthusiastically explained to me, and I was embarrassed, but I'm sorry to interrupt him, but obviously, there is a vast audience to us – that may not want to know who's talking, is a harsh reminder. So when old Lei a saying that "we", I immediately got the liberation as wanted, no nostalgia for the music.

Was building to, see the pit light several trees in the night silence, and a house music, feel is cozy and romantic.

Come to the shopping street, the old mine and I look at the foot of the brick, the carved with age.

He said that this is because in those buildings to collapse, the Road hit is broken, such as patching, specially in the new brick engraves words, what is the description of why supplement.

Through the center of several small square, many young people get together to laugh loud, very lively.

But old Lei on today's young people are not understand, "they only know how to spend money to buy brand-name, no matter how much earned. In fact, very shallow. "I heard people in the United Kingdom also said in that case, no, it seems that the old comrades around the world are the same, to today's young people, is the generation gap?

Each square has a landmark building, where a church in Florence the Picciotto clock designer Joe Torre mural, unfortunately closed doors, do not see.

There is also a nice café, its reputation stems from its opened specifically for students together in a book, but there was a student in the shot and killed inside, when things old mine didn't say, and now students are entered in a book I didn't ask, but we crossed from the inside, the Hall has no place of business of desks and chairs. Cannot help feeling that a University for a city to fill can be important, such as a human touch to the traditional, this is a place to cherish human infants, which human infants from its treasure of knowledge and the civilization of advocate.

Everywhere, old Lei will I make some, but definitely the last sentence is "I'm sorry to say that now is the evening, you do not see.

”。 I also had no alternative but to smile and say: "Yes, all in all, this is a regrettable that night. ”

"Bliss" difficult to understand

Returned it has 11: 00.

Old mine took out a Venice map let me take, then took out a folding fans, said a Chinese friend gave him the wrote four words: "Bliss". He would like to know what these words mean. This is really bad explanation. I spoke with him about, feel about myself, well, it's a philosophical issue, but also Oriental philosophy. Obviously he understood, "Oh, I see," he said, "is not what it means: if sometimes things do not understand is not a bad thing, someday you'll understand. ”

Arguably, the House of hospitality, they should be dutifully good explanation, but I really do not know how to explain to him, much less have the heart to fight against his gang see dawn, if that is what he wants, then go with him, I kinda have to put it to pull over.

So the opposite location header that is on the floor after the rest.

The upstairs bathrooms is beautiful, not luxurious, but elegant.

Shower had no doors, no make the whole bathroom (estimate also does not allow), just above a vaulted so close to feel is in the door.

Set the alarm to the 7: 30, I look forward to tomorrow's trip to Venice.
