It's Friday, Friday

Friday Gio came to Florence and after I gave her the villa tour, we went down to visit the Church of Santa Croce, did a bit of market-ing, enjoyed gelato and a sweet aperitivo, and dined on some Neapolitan food (pizza & seafood pasta) at Il Pizzaiuolo.

Formidable statue of Dante in front of the church's facade

Courtyard at S. Croce, with the Pazzi Chapel

The still-active leather school and shop inside S. Croce,
originally opened during WWII to give orphans a trade

Sunset at the Ponte Vecchio

It feels so normal to have Gio around with me in Italy, I think I'm already taking her proximity for granted!
