Italy 2007- Day 5 Piazza Signoria

Florence is such an irresistible city.  It has somehow lasted so that you can easily imagine life in the Renaissance.  But beyond that, it still has the proportion, elegance, and visual power to hold you.  Even in our media saturated world, Florence stands unique and should be experienced first hand.  Sure, you can take pictures but you have to remember what it was like to be there.....what did it smell like?  what did it sound like?  how much did the gelato cost?  Was it crowded?

I wish that so many people didn't know about it.  Shhhhhh.....don't tell anyone.
