UPDATE: Italia #4

Took the train to the birthplace of the rebirth - the Renaissance, that is - Florence. Saw dozens of palazzos, cathedrals, and statues, each one more amazing than the last. The most impressive being Brunelleschi's Duomo at the Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore. The Ponte Vecchio had an intense crush of people and marked one end of a long walk through the ritziest luxury shops of the world.

Had the second best duck ravioli of my life - really! And scallops, tortellini, roast chicken, and a freshly pressed blueberry juice.
