After being in Florence Italy for a few days this week, I was reminded how beautiful the city and the surrounding countryside are, especially in the fall.
A nighttime tour of the city meant double the pleasure: seeing the buildings in the glow of the moonlight and fewer crowds.
There were no words upon seeing panoramic views of Florence from the top floor of a private home, only the sound of camera shutters and gasps of awe.

A scoop or two of gelato is a much deserved treat after an afternoon of shopping and makes you feel like a kid again, as does the carousel in the Piazza della Repubblica.
