Day 43


--Happy Valentine’s Day! What a lucky gal I am that I get to be in Italy and with my love today! We visited and wandered around the Duomo, Piazza Signoria, the Ponte Vecchio and grabbed some gelato from my favorite gelato place.

After dragging Greg to my fresco class, we got a dinner recommendation from my friend, Ledi, who lives in Florence. We had a nice dinner with complimentary champagne and two large, buone pizze in the shape of hearts. And after our dinner, Nikki joined up with us for a night at Be Bop. Be Bop is a tiny venue underground where cover bands play the same set weekly, including the Beatles, ACDC, etc. Well, we attended the show on the performance of The Beatles, which was just grand! There were the four “beatles” dressed to boot, and singing some of the great hits of the fab four. My favorite part about this show was the band’s fantastic Italian, “british” accents. They were to killer accents.
