Have your cake and eat it too

Gio, along with two of her friends from her master's program in Bologna, came to lunch at the villa last week. We spent the afternoon chilling at the villa, shopping in the market, eating gelato, and then watching the sunset from Piazzale Michelangelo, one of Florence's famous look-out spots. It was truly a lovely day.


Taking in the view from the villa's South Terrace

One of the most stylish salesmen I've ever met,
teaching us a variety of scarf-tying styles
with the utmost finesse at the San Lorenzo market.
My favorite was the "triangle manner".

the hike up to Piazzale Michelangelo

Gio and friends, as we enjoy the sunset over Firenze

What a spectacular view!!
