Update from Florence


Tasty treats from the local market.

Italy is for lovers

City of Florence(the church in the right hand corner is where Michelangelo and Dante are burried)

Ponte Vecchio, the oldest bridge in Florence (the only one not destroyed by the Nazis)
The Duomo, central point of city very old cathedral

Doug and I walked up this big hill to this look out last night. It was really pretty to see the city at sunset. We went to the David today but are unable to post some pics that we SECRETLY took because we shot them in RAW so the blog cant show them. So you will have to wait to see them!! We also got to see the famous painting of Abraham sacraficing Isacc and the angel there with the ram - very cool. They were crazy about NO PICS too, but we couldnt sneak that shot in to many watchers! Well we leave tomorrow for Naples then over to Capri.

Obviously a different culture! They don't even bother taking out the eyes of whatever that pink dead thing was! Gross!! The sunset pics were beautiful by the way:)
