Florence - Day 1 - Part 2

 We had read in Rick steves about a restaurant that had a 20 euro fixed price meal that included a first course, a second course, a side, water and a glass of wine or pop. That was a great deal for the reasons I mentioned in the last post about pop being about 5 euros. And no free water anywhere either. No tap water at restaurants. And it was just a couple of blocks from our hotel!  All the food was excellent  the wine was delicious (best wine we’ve had so far)  

Owen is overtired and silly and pretty annoying at this point in the trip but we are surviving! 😂 kids have lights out at about 9:30am and I struggle to wake everybody up at 7:30am for the day. 

Anna’s first course - Ravioli

Joel and I got these homemade noodles with a cream meat sauce. 


Owen got fettuccine with meat sauce

Trev got spaghetti with a seafood sauce
For the seconds, Joel and I agreed to share meatballs and a beef in onion sauce

Anna and Owen got meatballs. And they got fries for their side. Trev, Joel and o got a salad

And Trev got the sinning meal of the night with the pork shank!  The waiter joked it was T-Rex it was so big!


We are back at the hotel and it’s 9:30pm. I can’t wait to turn off the lights!  18,800 steps today.
