We are back from three days in Florence exploring ways to find relief from the unseasonable heat. We enjoyed iced coffee in the Bardini gardens and aperitivo in several rooftop bars where we found a cooling breeze and stunning panoramas of the city.  Check out La Rinascente, Continental Hotel and Grand Hotel Minerva.

Meanwhile back in Spello more on the annual photo expo. This exhibition is a double delight as the exhibits are displayed in places not usually open to the public.  We particularly enjoyed the following.

My mission is to find out what family history these walls contained.  I'll keep you posted.
