We took a beautiful bus ride above Florence to the town of Fiesole. After an hour and two bus changes we arrived to a central piazza and made our way to the Etruscan and Roman archaeological sites. Below you can see the roman amphitheater, the gorgeous grounds with many olive trees and the Roman baths.
Ofelia taking a moment to take it all in.
The nearby museum houses artifacts from all of the civilizations that have lived in this area since 600 BC.
After our delicious outdoor lunch we took the bus back down the hill and explored the San Lorenzo market. Our new purchases included some hats for Tessa and Ley and a few gifts for our loved ones. Our afternoon concluded with a walk by the Duomo, a relaxing bar visit to see the Brazil v. Chile game, a slightly harrowing cab ride and a scrumptious meal (outside of course) at the Osteria Santo Spirito.
