Florence in Words and Pictures

20-30 August 2001

I spent ten days in Florence, Italy at the end of August 2001. While there I kept a trip journal and a sketch book, and had a wonderful time. Ever since my return I've been meaning to put some of these words and images up on the web, but my busy schedule and then the events of NineEleven intervened.

Initially the focus will be the images, but I will attempt to fill in the supporting text as time allows.
