My Heart Was Made To Travel

July 7th

Today was mostly spent traveling to Firenze(Florence). Mom and I sat behind these adorable little boys from New York(their family was on vacation to celebrate their grandparents 50th anniversary and they hadn't been back to Italy since they moved to the US many years ago). They each needed a window seat and some entertainment. Mom made the "mistake" of pulling out some Oreos for us to eat. Even though the little one had been completely content to eat Nutella and bread, he now was focused on Oreos. So we gave each of them one but little Luca wanted more. So his Dad went back to the catering cart to find some. Oh man did that set off melt down city since Dad left and didn't take him with. Of course there were no Oreos and the surprise cookies Dad brought back were not good enough. So Mom slyly slipped the rest of ours to Luca's Mom and all was right with the world again! Needless to say his Mom was ready for a couple of glasses of wine. 🍷

After a little bit of a walk, we found our hotel and all of us were a hot melty puddle. Florence tonight at 6:30pm was still 97 degrees and 42% humidity. It's going to be a drenched couple of days here. But I'm excited to see the sights and go on the winery tour in a few days.

Ciao! Until tomorrow....
