Today I am remembering a dinner my family and I shared in Florence last month.
We walked to Piazza della Signoria, where a replica of Michelangelo's famous "David" statue stands, along with the larger-than-life Neptune fountain by Ammannati.
The square is surrounded on three sides by cafes and other restaurants, all serving combinations of delicious seafood, pasta, pasta salads and pizza. Although we never ate at the same restaurant twice, we did return to this particular piazza for dinner, and the photo above was taken on our second visit.
The first night, a youth orchestra had assembled itself atop the steps of the Loggia dei Lanzi and was playing wonderful classical music while we ate. Good food, good atmosphere, good mood, good people.
Unforgettable memories that I do not take for granted, and will never forget.
