Florence and the snow

 Florence with the snow three days ago, almost 10 cm in a couple of hours!




so Saturday after a nice walk with zar in the vineyards and olive trees 




I decided to go downtown from my house in the Chianti countryside



walking by Pitti Palace


watching strange cars on the road


crossing Ponte Vecchio (the old Bridge)


entering in a Pinocchio store nearby




looking at the Lion, the symbol of Florence and the statue in the Loggia in Piazza della Signoria


and finally arriving in piazza del Duomo after the sunset



to see the Brunelleschi's Dome, the Giotto's Tower and the Cathedral....
with the snow
