Firenze (or Florence as us Americans call it)




I finally made it to Florence when my Aunt Deb and Uncle Phil came to visit us.  We spent 2 nights there, with one full day of sightseeing.  We visited the Uffizi Gallery (famous for paintings and sculptures), Michaelangelo's David and the Accademia museam, the Duomo (Cathedral), and other churches and beautiful things.  We had fabulous food (my favorite so far) and quenching Chianti wine.  The Tuscany region is famous for that kind of wine.  I look forward to going again, in the off season this time.  I am a little tired of being a tourist!!
