Palazzo Medici Riccardi

3/21/15

Day 65
I've been dying to go to Palazzo Medici Riccardi, especially since we watched a video in art history that highlighted the Medici Chapel.
Sadly, it's not included on our free museum pass but I decided it was worth it. The chapel lived up to expectations because every single wall was covered in unusually bright colors but the rest of it wasn't really what I was picturing.
We came at a weird time because it seemed like there was a political meeting going on and part of it was just an art exhibit.
Other parts were a historical bedroom and a display of ancient marble sculptures. 

I got lunch near Dante's church and the hole in the wall (they sell lampredotto out of it I think) and it was these delicious little salted balls of dough with a surprise in the middle. My surprise was salami and it was amazing, even if it wasn't very filling. 

I went out for drinks again and I found out that I do not like gin & tonic. Then we relocated to a different place (the Irish bar) and they had left over green beer!!! It was so exciting!
