Florence is smaller than Rome and specializes in gold/silver and leather stuff. I didn't really care about that at all though, since what is better than all that crap that I would have to buy and carry around is that Florence is also home to Michaelangelo's David! We tried to sneak in the back entrance (because at the museum he was at, he is right at the end of the exhibition thingy and you get an awesome shot of him from the exit) but we got busted one room in and got kicked out, so we had to line up to go into the museum the proper way. 
The museum was ridiculously small (like, a couple of other rooms which seemed to tokenly make it a "museum" and then there was a special airconditioned room thing with a dome (which I think Mike actually designed himself) and a giant 2 meter tall naked marble guy! You weren't allowed to take pictures here either but I snuck in a few, hahaha.
That was the main thing we wanted to see in Florence, but we also managed to find il Porcellino (a pig fountain whose snout you rub for good luck), the Duomo cathedral (where Andrea and I lit candles) and the gigantic "Gates of Heaven" to the Baptismo thing outside the Duomo, 
Dante's church, Dante's house, Dante's street and several piazzas with cool statues (including a fake David you could take pictures with).
