We're only human after all...
So Ray and I were trying to cram a last day trip in to Cinque Terre and another day to Assissi,but realised that we wouldn't see Florence the way we wanted to if we did that. The only solution is to plan a trip back to Italy to see those places. Florence has its own flavor(and smell-yikes!) The people who work here are a little crabbier than in Rome,generally it seems, or maybe Ray and I are bringing the worst out in them.We saw the Pitti Palace art today and the Acadamie with the famous David, which was worth the trip to Italy on its own, and before that we went to mass at the Duomo. A full day, but not over yet. Happy Mothers Day to all you Moms out there.

Checking back to one of your earlier blog postings, I realized your time in Italy is drawing to a close. So much to see & do, and so little time to do it all. We will miss reading your daily blog and look forward to visiting Saskatoon to see your photos. You have not missed Spring in Western Canada; we are still waiting.
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day to all three of you as well! I feel sorry I can't call you for a chat but we can postpone that until you return to Canada.
ReplyDeleteLove you lots mom, enjoy your trip.

Hope you had a nice mothers' day. I imagine that a day in Firenze is a good way to spend it. Great town. We were staying at a convent close to that domed church on the opposite side of the river from the duomo. Hope you enjoy your final days in Italy. Can't wait to hear more about your adventures.
