Firenze

A very busy town, but so incredibly beautiful. I am glad Christa spoke highly of this place because it was very worth it to come! Yesterday we rented bikes and did a bit of shopping then dinner overlooking the Ponte Vecchio & Arno River at Open Bar, an amazing restaurant!

Today we took a 20 mile bike ride through Tuscany and wine tasted at a 17th Century villa with over 180 rooms! It was the best lunch and wine combo I have ever had and cannot wait to share with my family & friends.

Recommendation of the day: If you do a bike tour in Tuscany, do Per's Bike Tour! Its a small, more boutique style ride that promises (and delivers) the best adventure through Tuscany and really gives you the ultimate Tuscan experience!!

Firenze pictures are up on the Flickr!!
