With just a few hours left of our last day in Florence, we decided to leave the famous Uffizi until last. I knew that many hours could be wasted there, trying to get from one gallery to the next as it’s always crowded. Giotto’s frescoes and
Donatello’s crucifix
Donatello’s amazing crucifix in Santa Croce would be easy to find (I thought) and without the crowds.
On the way we stepped into the Museo Galileo, called the Science Museum on some maps, for a quick look at the ancient clocks.
Planetary clock
My sister, Susanne, had this museum on her list of ‘must sees’ so she found The Planetary 
Clock particularly interesting. I was lucky enough to get a photo of the information in English so I hope it is clear enough to read here. Most of the other photos in this museum were taken by Susanne. Of particular interest were Galileo’s telescopes and some of his geometrical instruments.
