It is Much Easier to Begin Than End! (Plautus)

My time in Siena is up; the sand in the hourglass has emptied, and I am finally packing.  It is difficult to imagine waking up in Florida on Saturday.  I am filled with both happiness and sadness...

Since there is still packing to be done (and a party to attend tonight), this last blog will just feature a few pics from the last two days.

Kerry and I took off to Florence yesterday for shopping and sight-seeing!  We went to the Uffitzi so I could take pictures of some of my favorite statues!

Rape of the Sabine Women

Hercules and the Centaur

 After looking at the statues near the Uffitzi, Kerry and I went to the Chiusa and Casa di Dante!

Even a restaurant nearby is obsessed!
