Opera Concert in Firenze

We decided to find the best 5 star hotel in Florence and go and sit by their swimming pool for the day. Eventually we came across the Hotel Minerva
and how lucky were we. Not only did we have a great time sitting by the rooftop pool
but we made friends with the bar manager 'Said' who is from Morocco.

Said looked after us very well indeed and we stayed until 2.30 the following morning. We also met Sarah who invited us to an opera concert that evening in a church nearby. The highlight of the concert was a japanese soprano Asako Uchimura famed for playing the part of Cio-Cio-San in Madame Butterfly.
