We took our 2 hour drive to Tuscany (Beautiful) arriving in Florence around lunch.
We talked to the hotel desk guys and he told us to take the 23 bus (23A coming home) downtown as parking would be too difficult. I concur.
We ride the bus and take in the sites including the statue of David. We didn't realize that it was about 20 feet tall -- and really was done so perfectly that you almost expected to see it breathe. Impressive.
Lunch -- Nicole goes crazy and gets spaghetti. I try to get something completely different and get spaghetti carbonara (awesome).
Snack -- Gelato (Nicole Vanilla, Matt Panna Cotta)
Dinner -- Nicole, Eggplant something something and Matt gets a leek and sausage rissoto. We finish with a berry and fruit of the forest yogurt (Nicole) and Matt gets a locally produced dark chocolate mousse which came with a realistic looking gellied pear mustard. I can't make that up.

so glad nicole decided to stay!! and that the marriage could be salvaged by good food and good art. we, on the otherhand, are missing you terribly. our marriage is also on the rocks due to larry's newly found herniated disks in his back. it makes for grouchy days. please come back and cheer us up!!!
So Glad you are blogging again!! I missed your mussings and humor!
Glad Nicole is getting to see Europe - TomTom style!

Evidently the TOMTOM struck again...more sausage!
Matt, I'm worried that your trip has turned into a sausage-fest. On most Saturday nights that would be unacceptable.
