Under the Tuscan Rain...

We docked in Livorno, Italy, but took a bus into Florence. It was such a cute little Tuscan town.  It was rainy off and on all day, but we still had a great time.

 

This is a picture of the facade of the Florence Cathedral in Piazza Del Duomo.  It was designed by Brunelleschi in the 1400s.  It was all done in green, pink and white marble.

This is Ponte Vecchio, or Old Bridge.  It is a medieval stone bridge.  It is completely closed in and filled with jewelry shops.  I think it was my favorite part of Florence.  It was just so neat with the little shops built right into the bridge.

Michelangelo's David....or at least a copy of it.  The real one was moved to  the Academia Gallery in Florence but we didn't have a chance to see it.

This is the flag of Florence...Love it!

I love all the detail they put into their buildings.  This was just a door on a normal building, not even a famous one.

MMMMM the best pasta of the whole trip! 

 

After Florence we got back on the bus and headed to Pissa. It wasn't a very long drive, but it was so rainy.  It was really neat to walk around the corner and see the leaning tower of Pisa.  It really is leaning quite a bit and it leans even more every year.

 

 

So I thought I'd do my part to help hold it up!
