Kristine's Visit

The same day our previous guests left, J left to lecture in Amsterdam and then a few hours later, I went to pick Kristine up at the train station!  It was great to have Kristine here and to have a shopping buddy!  It was fun to be a tour guide again.  I got to see Michelangelo's David two times in three days!  How lucky is that?  
Hereis Kristine and I by the Arno.
By the Duomo.
We took a walk up to Piazzale Michelangelo.  It is such a beautiful view.
Shopping at San Lorenzo market.  I am getting much more brave at bargaining with the Italian vendors - we got some great deals!
Kristine's flight was out of Rome, so we spent a fun packed day walking around the huge city.
Here we are by the Trevi Fountain.
At Palatine Hill
And at the Colosseum.  I had been there previously with J on our vacation, but it was still so interesting to see.



Kristine and I had a great time in Florence and Rome.  Thank you Kristine for visiting!  I had to take a day to recover from all our visitors - I love it!
