taking train to Florence!
each of us have a BIG luggage + 1 small luggage...
means we got 7 BIG n small luggages!
we need to strategize who move which luggage n who go find seats etc..
n challenge is we need to shift fast so wont block others!
we even "whoosshh" after we strategize..
sooo funny!
the time spend to move luggage gets shorter as we travel more n more train..
like expert in moving le..
hahaha
TIPS: in order to have peace of mind when leaving luggage at "parking" area, it is good to buy a long wired lock to wire up the luggages so tat others wont steal it!
n lucky smith bought 2 very long wires!
so smart!
reach florence!
some cathedral
sky soooo blue again!
alot of "david" kekeke.
means birdie la...
dinner!
TIPS: smith always go tripadvisor to look for top few restaurant to eat, so we can have good meals!
at train station
TIPS: have GOOD luggage is very important if u move alot...
especially have a GOOD 4-wheeled roller..
its is sooooo much easier to move when 1 hand pull big luggage, 1 hand pull small one..
each of us have to pull 2 luggages at one go..
and when your luggage is so heavy n not 4-wheeled.. is quite tough...
see us pulling luggage..
finding ways to our B&B..
rushing across road n small lanes...
can imagine the "be careful", "look out, got car", "the uneven roads"!
