Our fearless leader, Brad, is back from eight glorious days of vacation in Italy, in Rome and Florence, that he shared with his wife Mira, son, and daughter.
His 5 Observations/Highlights:
1) That the Italians, for whatever reason, think they’re the political laighingstocks of the world.
2) Gobbling down the most luscious vanilla ice cream at a place in San Gimignano that’s won the title of The World’s Best Homemade Ice Cream four years running.
3) His kids making pizza in the back ovens of a restaurant in Florence.
4) Drikning the best hot chocolate he’s ever had at a cafe overlooking the famous Uffizi Gallery in Florence.
5) Stopping over briefly in the city of Siena, which has parts that look the way they did in the Middle Ages.
Below are several pictures from the trip:
