To Florence in Style

If we have to leave, at least we leave in style.  This is the rental car Cody came home with - a Mercedes Benz E220 for those who understand that stuff.  He wanted a small upgrade from the Skoda wagon we had over here on our honeymoon!  It was good to have someone around who was excited to be getting on the road since others of us were shedding tears.  

We missed much of the Tuscan countryside since it rained the second half of our trip to Florence.  It was only a light rain by the time we were checked into our hotel and, armed with umbrellas, we were still able to make it over to the Accademia to see David.  We do not appreciate art like some people, but the sculpture was amazing indeed.  Hannah slept in the stroller the entire time we were in the museum and Megan decided she would push her.  (You might not be able to see her stance but she learned how to stand on the back of the stroller from watching her big cousin!)

So glad to hear and see that you made it to Florence in style and safely. I guess it is on to Milan tomorrow. Safe trip there too, and we will see you on Thursday.

Hugs and Kisses
