Florence where the Renaissance all began

Michael and Brittany in front of Ponte Vecchio

Sun bathers along the Arno River!!!

First come first serve

Typico verdure and frutte mercato

Byzantine architecture at its finest - St Annunziata

Brilliant frescos from the mid 1450's said to have started the Renaissance

Gritti Palace- home of the Medici family who encouraged the Renaissance

Il Duomo a notte


Palazzo Vecchio at Piazza Signoria

View of Florence from Piazzale  Michelangelo


Celebration of Notte Bianca - White Night to celebrate spring


Palazzo Strozzi where I had my coffee every day - much better than any Starbucks store
