Italy - Day 4 - Punto Radio

Today began with a walking tour of Florence ("Firenze" in Italian)  Highlights included the Cattedrale di Santa Maria, the Basilica di Santa Croce and the Galleria dell'Accademia.  That evening we took a pasta making class and drank a lot of wine.  So fun!

Basilica of Santa Croce--burial place of Galileo, Michaelangelo and Machiavelli.

Fontana del Porcellino--rubbing the pig's nose for good luck.

Making pasta!

Michaelangelo's David at the Accademia.  This 17 foot masterpiece sculpted in marble was incredible to see in person.

Punto Radio broadcast to Florence from 1977 to 2007.
