Church in Montevarchi

Started off the day with our first church in Italy.  New branch formed that covers Siena, Arrezo and Montevarchi.  Well attended, and we were grateful for the translation service.  Weonly stayed for sacrament service, promising to come back next week for longer.

After watching England wallop Panama 6-1 at the local pizza/gellato place (Slurp in Cavriglia) we headed out to Florence to show Tones some of the sites.  Nothing was open being Sunday and the streets were quiet.  Dinner in a square and a puppet show for the kids, and then we headed for the local medieval football game, which we couldn't get into.  And then on to the big Florence fireworks display over the river, celebrating the patron saint of Florence John the Baptist.

Long walk back across town ad heavy traffic, and fell int bed after midnight.  Great day - but oh the great days are now blending in to each other and time is passing at an all too quick of a pace.  Needs to slow down!
