July 6, Art in Florence. Ufitzi gallery and the Academia

My mom and I had a day full of art viewing in Florence. We went to the Academia to see the "David" in the morning, then the Ufitzi gallery in the afternoon. Beautiful!! 
But also lots of walking and very hot!
Michelangelo's unfinished works, the  "Slaves", Prisoners of the marble.
