Florence for Four-Year Olds - January 2

We spent the morning sucking up some major cultural experiences in churches, museums, on the street, everywhere.
Florence is awash with riches, historic and artistic and I was in a headspin trying to absorb it all.

Florence is not a particularly child-friendly place though and by afternoon Mads was in need of the company of someone born in the same millenium as herself. It wasn't easy but we managed to find a park where Madeleine met an English-speaking 5 year-old girl who she really clicked with. They played happily for hours.

We attribute this miracle to the candle we lit for Mads in the cathedral at Cologne. Stand by for a deathbed conversion.
