Fireworks over the Arno


















We had a magical little night in Florence. Today is The Feast of San Giovanni (St. John the Baptist) who is the patron saint of Florence. There were lots of festivities happening in around town and the day concluded with fireworks over the Arno River. We had dinner at a nice restaurant overlooking the river and could see the fireworks from our table. The show was an hour long so we got our food, ate, and paid before the show was even over! Taylor and I got cotton candy from a cute old couple while we watched the colors of Italy light up the sky. There were street musicians and plenty of joy to go around all evening! It was a wonderful last friday in Italy.
