Quick Update from Innsbruck

Our last day in Florence and spent it walking around town and seeing the major sights. Way to many tourists in this part of the world and have to be ready to combat major crowds if you plan on making a visit here. We decided against going into the major museums, as they generally looked like 1 - 2 hour lines for each of them.
Got on the road yesterday and travelled from Florence to Innsbruck, via Verona. Would highly recommend Verona to anyone travelling in these parts as it was like a postcard wherever you looked.
Likewise the drive from Verona through the mountains to Innsbruck was amazing countryside. Unfortunately hard to capture on the camera.
Had a quick ride around Innsbruck this morning and about to venture out for a look, and to walk breakfast off.....
