I arrived in Firenze on Valentine's Day. On my taxi ride to the hotel, I was able to talk with the driver in Italian!
I stayed at the Hotel Adler Cavillieri. My room was amazing-Il Glicini (the wisteria). It was like a little apartment with my own
garden patio. After sleeping for a couple of hours I ventured out into the streets and found my way to the Ponte Vecchio.
On the way back to the hotel I ran across a Chocolate Festival. So I treated myself to a hot chocolate. OMG it's like nothing I've ever
had before. Thick as pudding, so rich, I can't possibly eat it all....just a couple of bites....I'm going to have to throw the rest out. Just a couple
more bites. This is heaven. I don't think I can eat any more chocolate!
Ok, I am exhausted and it's only 8:30 pm. I can't help it I have to go to sleep.After what seemed like at least 8 hours, I awakened and looked at clock-11:00. Yes, I still have 8 more hours of sweet sleep. Ahhh jet lag.
