random Florence...

Here are some things we wanted to remember about Florence:

Next to the Duomo is the Baptistry. It has beautiful sculpted golden doors. I loved how the scultures just pop out of the doors.




This is Florence's answer to the Trevi Fountain in Rome. There is a pig that when you drop a coin from its mouth, it ensures your return visit to Florence. I don't know....I don't think it has as much charm as the Trevi fountain...





We loved these sidewalk chalk artists!



Again, we felt the heavy burden of finding the best gelato places in Florence.







We loved all the leather markets around town. Finding the best deal with the vendors was part of the fun!
