Florence - Day 1

Over the next few posts I will be sharing with you numerous photos of my college trip to Florence. 

Day 1 - Woke up at 5.30 to head over to my friends house to go to the airport. After overestimating the amount of traffic we thought there was going to be, we arrived at the airport 45minutes before we were supposed to meet everyone.. opps! The whole airport procedure was pretty average and ran smoothly apart from the 30minute flight delay. 

As we arrived in Pisa airport, our whole group came to terms with how HOT it was going to be. England has been awful over the past few weeks so stepping out into 30 degree heat was a shock. 
Before taking a coach to our hotel in Florence we stopped off in Pisa to visit the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa and the 'Piazza Dei Miracoli' (which is a walled area containing Pisa's Cathedral, Baptistery and the Bell tower itself)

To travel in I wore:
Jumper - H&M
White Tee - Topshop
Harem Trousers - ASOS Marketplace
Sandals - ASOS





What Leonie and Poppy wore (left to right):
Leonie wore: Trousers (H&M), Top (Urban Outfitters),  Sunglasses (Topshop).
Poppy wore: Trousers (H&M), Top (Topshop), Sunglasses (Primark) 
We checked into our hotel and went out for a walk to explore the city and go out for dinner. 

 Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore

As it was the first night, we decided to play it safe and went to a popular Italian restaurant and have a pizza. Then we ventured around town, went to the 'Ponte Vecchio' (famous bridge) to find an ice cream. I chose to have Cookies and Cream with Chocolate Mousse - Yum Yum Yum!
