Hello Leya 🙂 Have you visited Florence?
LikeLike
I have. I think I was 23 or something – I remember it being very difficult to see the cathedral really. Crammed streets and houses everywhere. But beautiful. I would really love to come back to see it as a grown up person. Your photos are delightfully shot.

🙂 I know what you mean – I saw some cities when I was hardly 20 and would really like to go back. I imagine that Florence as so many other places are a lot more touristy now – the crowds running in all directions really impact the experience. Thank you, Leya for speaking favourably of my shots 🙂
I was in Florence in the 70’s, so it’s been a long while. But this beauty lasts forever. Thanks for sharing, Paula.

True – it is a marvel and I hope that they will continue to preserve it well. With increasing visits and masses of tourists climbing it, it will get more and more difficult, but I am not surprised that everyone wants to see it. Thank you for your visit and comment Linda. It is always a joy to see you here. Are you well?
a beautiful place to get lost in contemplation… Florence… one of my best memories of Italy…

You must get hordes of tourists over there. We get them here but not in the thousands unless its a music festival or something. I love seeing photos of your part of the world – I don’t think I’ll ever get there.

That’s incredible. Glad I’m not there. Must be a wonderful city to see though.

It was pretty cool to grow up there. It’s a pity that most tourists remember the awful crowds and heat and impertinent waiters – you know the kind that are almost grabbing you by the arm to show you to the place where to eat, but that you can find in any touristic place in Europe not just along our coast.
Those waiters sound awful. Over here we tend to get the laconic ones that act like you arecausing them a problem by wanting service 🙂
