Day 10: Florence

We had a late start because we putzed around the apartment a bit and Mom and Dad found a cool market where they bought us some food for the next few days. When we ventured out, we walked out to Ponte Vecchio again (can't get enough of that bridge!) and over to the other side, where we had lunch, wine, and the first cannoli of the trip.

Knowing him was very helpful because he gave Cassy a great deal on her leather jacket! On the way to her apartment we went into a vintage store and she found a gorgeous sweater for an amazing price! After visiting her apartment we got some gelato and a waffle sandwich that has nutella in it and headed back to my apartment. For ...
