Florence...

Florence, Italy.  I'm in love.

The people were amazing, the city is ancient and beautiful, and I want to go back.  I took over 300 photos.  We had wonderful tours with knowledgeable guides.  Stayed in the 4 Seasons Hotel which was amazing all in itself.  I loved walking the city, eating the wonderful food, drinking good wine, dunking bread in lovely olive oil.  I think Italian is the most lyrical language of all.  And we want to buy a villa and retire to Italy.  sigh.
