It's snowing in Florence!







It's snowing in Florence - bringing out the magic and enchantment of the ancient city! In the Renaissance, Florentines made snow lions (symbols of the republic) and figures of Hercules (the city's legendary founder); modern-day kids have just as much fun throwing snowballs! Here are some pics of the Ponte Vecchio and the beautiful church of San Miniato al Monte all covered with snow ...
