No class  Fridays may have excursions with the class such as trips to a museum or other place around the city. In addition to these classes I also have an online Global Seminar that helps you look at cultural differences and apply your experiences to future classes/jobs etc. We got a museum card that allows us to get into the museums for free and skip the lines. Today we used it to see a little bit of the Giardino di Boboli (Boboli Gardens) which are behind the Palazzo Pitti. The Palazzo Pitti was built by the Pitti family, which was a rival banking family to the Medici family. The Pitti family wanted to out do the the Palace that the Medici had. Unfortunately they ran out of money while they were building and the Medici bought it.   These pictures do not do it justice. It is very large!   Palazzo Pitti     A view of part of the gardens   Me, with the city (and the Duomo) behind me.   The last mark of the Pitti Family. (Their coat of arms) All of the others were removed by the Medici when they bought the Palazzo.
