Not as good as I thought I was

I knew that the Italian spelling for Florence was Firenze. I knew that the Giro had a stage finish in Firenze this year. So far, I had it right. What I MISSED was that the finish was in Firenze on Friday, the day I arrived, and the stage finish on Sunday that I thought I would pick up by spending the weekend in Florence was actually in Faenza which is nowhere near Firenze. It's looking like the order of the vowels really does matter.

For Giro watching, it looks like my last chance is going to be on the final timetrial in Rome. I have an apartment and a railroad ticket, so I'm hopeful that I really will be there.
