Waiting to see Michealangelo's David. Worth the wait.
The David. Only one picture. No pictures allowed, but Lydia and I like to live on the edge.
The other big site we saw was the Duomo with Brunolesci's dome, the first dome built in the renaissance. The western US has the some of the most amazing natural places in the world, and I have been to them. But to be in the places were events happened that changed the trajectory of history is nearly unbelievable.
Beck, Iris, and I made it all the way to the top of the dome. To get there you climb from the top of the main building in between the inner dome which you can see from inside the Duomo and has the fresco on it, and the outer dome which you can see from the outside with the red roof tiles and white ribs.
The kids were actually next to a Real Michael Schoumaker Ferrari. But this one didn't talk.
I am not sure what kind of "trade" the Midici family did to amass such wealth. But if what they bought with that money reflects on their character, then they weren't all bad.
Firenze is the only place I have been to, packed with tourists, and over commercialized, that I was not only worth it, but I want to go back.

Papi wants to know if you're going to climb 14ers with him now that you climbed so many tall buildings.
