It's only 7:45 pm and yet I am sooo tired, I'm not sure I can stay awake much longer. Spent this afternoon at the Uffizi Gallery, looking at Renaissance paintings. Two hours on a guided tour and another hour on my own. Had debated about going, really glad I did and especially glad I booked the guided tour. Elisabeth from Artviva Tours was very informative and entertaining and it made all the difference to my visit.
Now officially in brain overload. Going to find some flea markets tomorrow morning and then plan to spend the rest of the day in relaxing mode.

About Me
- Cynthia of Cynful Creations
- Toronto, Ontario, Canada
- My first artistic addiction was beading and making jewellery, which I started doing in the summer of 2007. Since then, my artistic obsession has grown to include art journaling. Here in this blog, I write about my own and other people's creations and anything else that tweaks my fancy.

oh YAY! I did the same thing at the Uffizi and the guided tour really was good. Then I ate bread and cheese and went to bed early - really overwhelming the amount of art and sensory overload! but really, really wish I was there too. Have fun! Lori W at Art Camp for Women
