Florence and Pisa

I bet you thought I'd given up, didn't you? No, but I haven't been too active on updating the blog, I have to admit. Now that I'm in Mexico, and can find a little time (between XX, Sol and Pacifica) maybe I'll do a bit better. We'll see.

Here are some from Florence and Pisa, as the title suggests.


Replica of the statue of David.
The real thing is much more impresive.




Wish I had my guide book with me. If I did, I'd tell you the name of the Cathedral in Florence.
All I can say is that it's beautiful, built with green and pink marble.


I just can't resist photos of reflections.
This is in a park in Florence.

Replica statue of Davis is located here.


Now this is really aged chianti!

Another view from the hill.


Tower of Pisa. I thought this was a neat view.

Caribineri (sp?) or Polizia (sp?) in Florence.
Patti, here's a job if you get tired of LAPD

Downtown shopping district, early evening, as the lights are coming on.


Yes, the leaning tower of Pisa really does lean.

Thanks to the couple from New Mexico in Athens for recommending it.
