These are a Few of My Favorite Things p37

Creamy Dreamy

One evening, while out in Florence, we were on the way back to the hotel and saw this gorgeous display of gigantic mounds of gelato glowing from a restaurant. You really couldn't pass it without stopping to look at it. The art! ... I took a pic (we didnt end up eating the gelato here, because we had just finished some from another shop.) Later on the next day we passed by this shop, and all the mounds were atleast half gone.


The Dog Picture

This is absolutely one of my favorite pictures that I took during the trip. I don't remember where we were going, but we were waiting at the streetcorner one morning waiting to safely cross the street (as if that is ever an option in Italy.) While we waited, a man was changing out the window display (seen on the left.) His gold lab was sitting here pretty content/lazy. He was so relaxed sitting on this bin. It was like he was guarding it, but he was just so passive about it. He watched all the cars pass, the people going to and fro. His head would look back and forth, just following the morning crowds. He also seemed a bit isolated, blending into the wall, when everything else all around was going by so fast. I cherished the little moment in time.
