Today was a "free day" on our schedule so everyone got to choose where to go and what to do. Keith, Sharon, Dave, Gay, Chipper and Peggy all decided on a day trip to Rome by train. Off they went at six in the morning and returned safely about nine at night. They visited the Vatican, saw the Sistine Chapel and took a hop-on-hop-off bus tour around the city. Others of us who stayed in Florence visited an international artisans' fair and exhibits and saw some interesting things. So it was a "do-it-yourself" sort of day. Photos today are some strange faces I saw at the fair. We have a couple of busy days coming up so it may take a few days to get another blog post - don't give up. We'll be back . . .
