Two favorite things about Italy… #1 is the coffee. The coffee is absolutely amazing, flavorful and tasty without having to add sugar. #2 is the abundance of historical sites. The streets are closed in so you can't see too far in front of you and then bam! - the Duomo. Walk a little further and surprise! - a palace. Every time we explore a new area of town (we like to call it exploring, it's actually getting lost and having fun) we find new hidden treasures. In only two/three days we have found beautiful sites very close to our apartment and can't wait to explore more. Here are some photos to tide you over… I'm trying to avoid taking too many photos and looking too much like a tourist :)
