ponte-vecchioWe are so excited to be here in Florence so we rise early and head down to partake of a very tasty buffet breakfast.

Everything, as usual in Italy,  is cooked to perfection, proscuitto, eggs – scrambled, poached and fried, an assortment of cheeses, breads, jams, little Italian sausages and fresh tomatoes gently grilled to perfection.

The breakfast room is abuzz with tourists from many countries all quickly downing a hearty feed before setting off for an exciting day of exploring.

Our first stop is the Ponte Vecchio on our way to the Pitti Palace of the Medici’s and the Boboli gardens.

The Ponte Vecchio is full of the hustle and bustle of tourists all taking in the amazing array of jewellery on display.

Hmmm I wonder if my husband would notice a new piece of jewellery, maybe I could tell him I have had it for years and he just hadn’t noticed it.
