Joe,those things make me miss Firenze just as much….how long did you live in Bologna…I loved visiting it when I was there. Much quieter,somewhat to Firenze.
cheers
Just about 2 years…. sometimes wonder why I left. Maybe I’ll move back someday. Thanks for the comment:) –Joe
What? You don’t miss the fog? Come on! Today is ANOTHER rainy,foggy,winter day in Emilia Romagna. The perfect day to shop under the porticoes….
