Florence: Part One

Last month my brother Adam came to visit for 10 days, and we decided to go off on a mini adventure while he was in Europe. It so happened that his roommate was going to be in Italy so we decided to head over and meet up with him in Tuscany. Our first stop was Florence. The history of this city is impressive, the art work is stunning, and the food is delicious. 
The Arno.

The baptistry, facade, dome, and tower of the Florence Cathedral.
It rained every day we were there, but only for short spells, and it was still warm enough to lots of gelato.
