A beautiful drive to Florence in our rental car. It is not the tiny smart car I had envisioned, we are in a hot little Alpha Romeo. Thank goodness there is plenty of room for luggage. We have a tom-tom named Thomas-Thomas (said with an Italian accent), who will keep us from getting lost. -I hope!
There is nothing like a cappuccino over looking the Arno River. The coffee tastes better... I think it has to do with the chatter of Italian voices in the background.There is so much to see in a few days. The leather shops near San Lorenzo and Mercato Centrale are calling us first. We are planning lunch at Trattori ZaZa where they have a 3-soup plate with bread and vino. We will spend some time around Ponte Vechio and wandering the streets of Florence.
David is waiting for me!
Ciao y'all,
Sandi

Hey! We're headed there in July, but staying in Italy. How cool! I'm not sure I'll be able to blog though, which is a bummer. Have a GREAT time!
Sp glad you are having fun! I know it must be beautiful! Tell David "Hi".
We loved seeing the Leaning Tower of Pisa. It's amazing. I hope you went in the church too. Just gorgeous.
I drank cappuccino's every day we were in Italy. So yummy.
David is a sight to behold for sure.
Have fun!
Hugs!
