Vegetable Stand--Florence


Even before I started this blog I was always on the lookout for color. What can be more colorful than a fruit and vegetable stand? If you like history and shopping, but especially if you like both, then there is no better place than Florence. You can find an 18th century building and Gucci leather shop on the ground floor. Actually, if you are in the market for leather, then Florence is your place. So many stores selling leather. Should have picked up a bunch of leather dress belts. Oh, well. Loved Florence for the history (where the Renaissance began and the David still lives) and the shopping. Have to get back there some day.....
