I bought head of the queue tickets some months back to see David at 11:30am but did not get to the Accademia Gallery until 2:30pm. It was "traffico intenso" on the road from Trieste or that is what we told the guard, who said OK in you go anyway. David is much bigger than I thought. I always liked the carvings better than the paintings and this guy is huge. It is great to see the rest of the statues still in place around the town. All the alcoves have the statues in their recesses. Most other places we have been to they are removed indoors to some museum or else the Saracens have raided and smashed them up.
