[Idyllchat] Uffuzi and Academia in one day

[Russ Crum]

Janet,

I am assuming the times are 12:30 at the Uffuzi and 5 at the  
Academia. If so, yes, you can do both, I think. The Academia is not  
much of a problem if you are limited to an hour or two.

However, the Uffuzi is another story. It is huge and, depending on  
your art interests, one can spend a very long time there. An hour or  
two would be pushing it there, in my opinion. If you have some  
guidebook to help orient you through the museum, entering at 12:30  
and being out by 4 - 4:30 would give you time to see a reasonable  
amount.

It has been five years since we were there, but as I recall, the  
streets near the Uffuzi are mostly pedestrian.  We walked between the  
two and I don't think it took more that 15 - 20 minutes.
