Day 10: Florence
We started the day with a major bummer: Bradley left for home bright and early, which makes me really sad. I miss him already and I'm jealous that he gets to see our pooch and smoosh his little Louie face. There are a ton of dogs in Europe, by the way, and people bring them everywhere with them.

Day 13: Getting undone under the Tuscan sun
... had to use the emergency toilet (restroom). One guy even dozed off inside the toilet for like 10 minutes until his friend went to check on him. You really don't want to be sitting next to these guys.
We were on our way to Florence, Italy! Another new country for us to explore :> I enjoyed the costal views of the French Riviera along the way and I was trying to capture them with my camera. However, the road was really windy and there ...
