I absolutely love Florence. Probably a tie with Paris for my fav European city (although, as you state, they’re very different cities).

I hope you didn’t miss the great leather market near the produce market. We picked up lunch there (tomatoes, prosciutto, bread) and took it to the Boboli for lunch. Of course, we were there in early May, when the weather wasn’t so hot.

And one of the cool thins about the Accademia (aside from The David) were the unfinished works of Michaelangelo.

Also, the trip up to the top of the Duomo was worth the couple thousand lira we paid back then.

This post brings back so many great memories. Seriously, I could spend another week in Florence easily.

Thanks.
