Firenze….What a beautiful city. We arrived Saturday at 1PM. A quick drop off of instruments and luggage at the hotel and we were off to lunch. Our first visit in Florence was the Duomo. 465 steps the top. As you can see by the pictures it’s amazing up there.. We continued on with the day walking around the Piazza San Giovanni and Piazza del Duomo.. Around 5 PM we returned to the hotel for dinner. The boys prepared for the third concert and we walked to the church. All the big instruments went in taxi’s. Oh ya.. I forgot to tell you.. The bus can’t drive in the city centres.. So we have been walking everywhere and carrying the instruments to the concert sites. The concert was fantastic and I am not sure how the next one is going to be any better. The boy’s played their hearts out.
Thanks for the comments and well wishes.
It’s late now and time for bed.. 7AM comes early and the days are long.. Talk to you soon….

We are following your trip in a very hot South Africa! All the South African relatives and myself are following your trip with great envy. It is wonderful to be able to follow you and the boys and have a taste of all your wonderful experiences.
