Day 8
We were feeling really tired in the morning so we decided to take it EASY today. We went to see the Duomo of Florence, and climbed 463 steps to the top of its dome. Adding the stairs we climbed at the hotel (91 steps, twice), that is 645 steps up, and 645 steps down in one day, if you can call that EASY.

7. Almost there. Climb in between the interior and exterior of the dome.
