First Night In Florence


Our first night in Florence and we met up with our good friends Susan and Alex McAlister and their 3 children - Worth, Gordon, and Anna...what a great evening!  We met them at their hotel (Lungarno Hotel) and had a drink in their bar overlooking the Arno (beautiful sight) and then had a YUMMY dinner at a great restaurant - Trattoria Mama Gina - that our friend Paul Fletcher recommended.  It was GREAT!  Good food, good wine, good company!  The kids had a great time as well as the adults!
More history tomorrow!  Florence is beautiful so far!

  1. We went to Mama Gina's on our honeymoon, 30 years ago. It is amazing that the place is still there. Paul loved the peas but will tell you later what we were accidentally calling them in our restaurant Italian! Glad you had a great time there. - Connie Fletcher
