It’s my third evening in Florence, I’m all dressed up and definitely have somewhere to go!
WARNING: The following pictures are rated R (for ravenous!) – which is exactly how I felt by the time we arrived at L’Acqua Cheta Ristorante for dinner!
There just happened to be a beautiful couple in front of me entering the restaurant at the same time I was. Got any guesses who they might be?
You’re on vacation with me, so, time to wake up early and listen.
And after Paolo’s home brew of Italian espresso for the morning, we dress and take a trip to see the Wine Country. Our first stop takes us to a hilltop fortress, a city called . . .
It’s Day 2 in Florence, and I’m slowly discovering that my daughter, Krosbie has opened my eyes to life. The choices your child makes can be exactly what a parent needs to grow and expand.
Here we are strolling in her backyard, talking about how Italy presents a totally different way of thinking, of reacting, of observing everyday things, when all of a sudden I see an ordinary yet confusing sight in nature.
NEVER have I seen such a sight. Can you tell me what it is? If so, send me an email at rich@nurturemybody.com and win a $10 Gift Certificate from Nurture My Body!
A little refreshment, a change of clothes, and I’m off to see why my daughter, Krosbie, has fallen in love with Florence.
It’s late afternoon/early evening and first, here’s a quick peek at the school she is attending, called CAPA, which stands for The Centers for Academic Programs Abroad. They have rented a building to hold their classes in, and the school is for American students wanting to study abroad.
I had a rare opportunity to actually sit in my daughter’s Italian class as a local Italian Professor taught the language. You should have been a mouse in the corner watching a beaming Father so proud of the #1 student in the class!
What a place to study art!
We walked everywhere. And THIS you’d never see in your home town!
And the time has come for me to place family over our company. I have been invited by my daughter, Krosbie, to come visit her while she is attending a study abroad program in Florence, Italy. I shall be journalizing my wondrous trip and sharing it with you.

And as I settle into the luxury of Air France, leaving from Seattle, WA to Paris, with a final destination of Pisa, Italy, I must say that the menu that tickled my palate was surprisingly tasty. And, since I haven’t traveled in over 3 decades, I learned that I could have all the wine I wanted for free!
