Florence/Art/Biennale ....

Crisp overcast day ... great for walking around with all the Italians out on a Sunday ... doing the Biennale Art Show and just enjoying all that is this beautiful city of Florence ..... enjoy the pics .... lots more to come ...

Lana ready to go to the Biennale and wow the crowd with herself and her art


This trendy upscale store is just amazing store design ... had to stop and take a pic ... draws you right in ... and takes your bucks/euros' away ..... store is barely wider than a car .. amazing what folks do with the small spaces they use ...


Speaking of small spaces .. this street is barely wide enough for a Vespa let alone a car ... love the visual ...


Did I mention it was Sunday and the Italians were out in force .....


OK .. this is Michelangelo's "Pieta" in a wonderful small museum on the back side of the Duomo along with lots of other treasures from the Duomo that need to be protected and restored ... just mind blowing that you can just stand and look at this and touch it if you wanted ... but don't ... I mean the guy worked on this and you can see it like he was standing next to you ...
