Top of the World!

So I heard a rumor that the cupolla of the Duomo was going to be closed off after Easter for the next three years for restoration. This news was very disappointing to me because it was my plan to say good-bye to the city on my last couple of days in Florence by climbing the dome. I didn't want to miss my chance to climb the Duomo since I doubt I'll be able to make it back to Florence anytime soon so right before we (Marie, Madeline, myself and Ben) left for Spring Break, we decided to climb to the top! Over 400 steps later, we made it to the TOP! 

Climbing the stairs up the Duomo! Here with Marie creeping up on me!

From L to R: Madeline, Marie, Ben, and myself.
