    Bagna di Lucca  It's has been raining a little each day but in Florence yesterday we got drenched.  Lucca is marvelous and we love it.  So far, Ischis has been our favorite place.  Everywhere is bella but we wish the weather was a little better.  Heading for Bologna Friday for 2 nights and then Venice and home.  Jim climbed the tower next to the Duomo which has over 450 steps.  Amazing views of Florence.  The city was very busy and I would not want to be here in July or August.  The panini here are great as is the pizza.  Jim has actually lost weight from the walking.  Amazing to eat everything and lose weight.  More gelato to come today and tomorrow and the next day and the next day....
