This cathedral was the largest in Europe when completed, with room for 30,000 people. It is now only exceeded in size by Saint Peter's Basilica in the Vatican City, Saint Paul's Cathedral in London, the Seville Cathedral, and the Milan Cathedral.
If you have seen the Duomo (or photos) the green and pink marble panels of the building are quite memorable.
The family on the Ponte Vecchio Bridge.
Aunt Sarah with Nicholas. They really bonded on the trip! He couldn't pronounce Grammy or Grampy, but could manage Sarah quite clearly. :)
The Ponte Vecchio (Old Bridge) is in the background of the photo---the most striking feature is the multitude of shops built upon its edges, held up by stilts. This bridge is the only one in the city to have survived World War II intact.
