A day trip to Florence is a must when in Tuscany. The Art, the architecture, the hip food scene. It is a truly magical place. All'Antico Vinaio for a monster sandwich on Focaccia and a Birra Moretti. Ponte Vecchio for window Jewelery shopping. Bargello to see Donatello’s bronze David, standing victorious over the head of Goliath. End your day with a cheap glass of Italian house red and a view of the sunset over Ponte Vecchio. Just WOW!!

Food scene
THis is our favorite pizza place in the WORLD! This family is original from Sri Lanka, learned to make Calabrian style pizza while in Calabria and brought the recipe to the Lucca area more than 25 years ago. To say they have mastered the art is an understatement. Whenever we leave town this is the first food we miss. Fruti di Mare pizza and a slice of Ceci (Chick pea) pizza. I am drooling writing this!
