Tuscany Italy 2009

Travels to Florence, Rome and getting lost in Tuscany.
This was a hastily assembled trip so we just rolled with the flow. It turned out to be 1-1/2 weeks following five days of meetings. Starting in Florence for a couple days, we spent one rainy day in Pisa, two in Rome, two in Siena, two in San Gimignano and two in Lucca. While it seemed long as we planned it, the days flew by.
