Perugia to Florence
Today was a big day. I
circled through old town Perugia creating a video to demonstrate some
of the local area and roads (while it was raining). After that, we departed
and took a quick cruise to Cortona to have lunch, and then on to Florence
for an early arrival. We walked the streets of Firenza to see David and
others to make a complete day before retiring.
Video of old town Perugia.
This shot from our hotel
window shows the small space in which the cars drive.

Up in Cortona just before
lunch.
Many of the older communities
are perched up on a hill such as this one.
The poor little Italian
girl couldn't speak a word of English and didn't have a clue as to what
was happening.

On our way to see David.
(I promise, this is the last of this tourist stuff for me.)
David (he doesn't have
anything to brag about)
Making a buck
They talked me into walking
up 414 stairs to the top of this tower. (never again)
Ok, made it this far.
And, just a little farther.
Almost there (maybe, just
maybe)
And done, we're at the
top. Armando is staking his flag with pride.
Yes, we're happy. We're
coming down now.
Statue here, Statue there,
Statue everywhere

Those are lovelocks near
Joy on the fence (padlocks fastened together to represent couples matched
in love). Located on the bridge.
Take a close look at this.
He just sat down in the middle of the street and took his chalk and started
drawing. Amazing, and it will be washed off at the first rain.
These two live posers
were just sitting in the middle of the street. What's next?
