Sightseeing in Florence aka Firenze

We spent a rainy Friday in Florence. A little shopping always improves a dreary day...lol. Florence is a great city - in my opinion it's a million times nicer and cleaner then NYC. Our Florentine friends (who you'll meet in an upcoming post) disagreed. We spent most of the day checking out random sights but my time seemed to drift more towards shopping. Villa Bordoni has the best linen sheets so I was on a mission to find them somewhere in Italy. I was lucky to stumble upon a small linen shop that carried Bellora bed linens. Yay! Anyway, we also picked up some gifts for the family and other random items. Lunch and dinner in Florence deserve their own post so we'll get to those in a little bit.
