More than flowers!

Too right! Florence is more than anything one can describe or expect. I wouldn't want to live there as the number of visitors would drive me mad. And we visited in the off season.

Florence means architecture...culture...history...history of

religion...sculpture...cobblestone streets...international

dining...people from all over the world...steps to climb...

queues to join...photographs to take home...

But there is always time to have fun! To stop for

coffee and to rest those legs. Click on the photographs to enlarge.



This little fellow I found irresistible...hard to ignore

his happy face as I sat drinking my coffee.
