Davido e Due Nuovo Citti - David and Two New Towns

The Sunday bells were ringing as we began our day with another walk. This time to the Piazza Annunziata and then on to the Accademia for a look at Michelangelo's famous "David". After lunch, Bob, Al and Margaret jumped on their bikes and braved the Florence traffic for a tour up to Piazza Michelangelo and along the Arno river. Nancy did some laundry and I decided to check out a couple of new towns I had not seen before by train - Pistoia and Prato (not Prado, as in the designer). Both were interesting - as I find all of "Italia" - but not exceptional. It was a big market day in Pistoia with lots of people in the streets and plazas all through the old town. I cooked a pizza back at La Contessina and we all enjoyed some ice cream in the courtyard before bedtime. More later!
