Florence and Italian Bake-Offs:There’s Art and then there’s ART
Yesterday my wife and I did a day-trip to Florence which is about one hour by train from my cousin’s house. We visited Florence two years ago in November and, frankly, the only thing that impressed us at that time were the museums. We found the Florentines and the food a bit cold. Everything was different yesterday. We had a wonderful time exploring the city away from the larger museums and tourist areas. A highlight was the Basilica of San Miniato Al Monte which is an extremely old church. Also, we managed to get some very nice shots of Florence. The weather was perfect:
BUT, just when we thought things couldn’t be better, my family threw us in the car and we went to a genuine Italian bake-off. Now there’s art and then, there’s art. Check these delicious little things out:
The photo above shows various treats that children made. Yummy! By the end of yesterday we got to experience two of the greatest forms of art in the world: Florence and Cake. What could be better?
