We had a good day. We started with a bus tour of Florence. They picked us up so mom didn't have to walk. They went to parts of the city we had never seen. The downside is it rained, so pics weren't that great.
Mom is pretty worn out, so we let her rest for several hours. Robyn, Kenzi, and Rene went to the Medici museum and chapel. We went in the duomo, had lunch, did our laundry, and went to the food open market. We went to a great restaurant near ponte veccio. Mom and Rene came back by taxi and the three of us had a great walk back. We finished off the night with gelato at Grom. Yum!
Kenzi and I are climbing the duomo in the morning, then we take the train back to Venice to get ready to fly home on Wednesday. The trip has gone by waaaaaaay too fast. I love you family.
Some of the strange food. The sign identified it as "broiled food"

Happy B-day Madison
Not sure she knew what this was all about, but she still had fun.
Oh beautiful for spacious skies...
See...there's blue sky in Seattle (well, at least in Bremerton)
Kenzi the boarder
Nice form

Vienna from St. Stephens tower
A beautiful city
363 stone stairs up the tower at St. Stephens
I'm sure climbing it was a lot easier than building it
The Vienna Opera House
Amazing to think of all that has been performed here
The River Thames
This is home of the Tower Bridge and London Bridge (before some guy bought it and moved it to Arizona). Look its sunny -- a rare sight in January in London.
Trafalga Square at night
This is the place that during the day fills up with pigeons who will eat from your hand. One of the most famous spots in London.
The Hyde Park building
Looks kinda of like the chapel in Manhattan. It is in the middle of the city. I took a cab to get there, but then walked the couple miles back to the hotel through Hyde Park (huge like Central Park in NYC, but not as cool looking and without as many people).
Cool Building
This is building I spoted on our way to the Press Bar for one of our interviews.
Engaged!
Light rains down from Heaven....Jordan and Paige are gettin' hitched

Bombed Wall London
Kind of weird feeling to think that 65 years ago the German's were bombing this place. This is just about a block from the LDS church
