Firenza

What a difference a little sleeps makes!  We arrived um, I think yesterday, because we have lost half a day, to find our little Hotel Botticelli perfectly located,small, and quaint.  We couldn't wait to leave it.

Steve and I bundled up for rain, but soon saw the clouds break and the sky come through.  We walked through St. Lorenzo Market and I found molte purses that I loved and will end up purchasing through their excellent discount program!  We quickly found a trattoria with Chianti Classico and margharita pizza at an outdoor cafe called Cafe Zaza in the square.  We walked and walked and later realized we needed round two, so found another trattoria, another pizza, and another bottle of wine.  We returned to the Botticelli and crashed at  930.

Up at 8 and a gorgeous day of touring the town with a professional tour guide.
