Scenes From Florence

This was our first view of Florence, from Piazza San Michelangelo - probably one of the most photographed views in Italy. Another overcast day, as you can see, but it was still a pretty magnificent sight for us. The dome of the famous Duomo is right in the center.


We took the bus from this Piazza to the Santa Maria Novella train station, which was very crazy and overrun with people, heading every which way...

A tile sidewalk lined with stores...

Another piazza that Ed and I strolled through, looking for a bite to eat...

Which we finally found...with a view of the carousel and the plaza...

One of the many churches...

Another building...

A modern scooter proudly displaying the Fleur-de-Lis, parked next to an ancient building...

A sidestreet...

And Eddie posing next to a teeny, tiny electric car. What you can see in the background, is the sign for the "Tutto a 99 cent" store....everything 99 cents! Yes, they even have them in Florence!
