So far I've been to 77 countries, which means I have about 119 to go.

Florence, Italy

Florence is a wonderful maze of art, architecture, and history.

A copy of David sits outside the Palazzo Vecchio. We stood in line to see the real one at the Accademia Gallery.

The Palazzo Vecchio and La Loggia was our regular evening spot to sit and eat gelato and gaze at 500 year old sculptures.
I had to put aside my preference for beer and become a wine drinker on this trip. The house wine is usually pretty cheap, sometimes as little as $7 for 750ml bottle. It's decent stuff too. Italian beer is pretty awful.
