Off topic but I coudn't resist to share it with my Luger friends

It's only a video about Florence, where probably many of my LUGER mates have never been, so I thought I could share it.
There are also other short videos on Parma, on the South of Italy etc...
Hope nobody objects.

A nice week end to all of you.

Thanks Sergio for the link. I will have to watch the video from outside my place of employment.

But just for your information, I have spent many wonderful and enjoyable days visiting Firenze during the four and half years that I was stationed at Campo Darby near Pisa ( I would occasionally eat my lunch on the top of the leaning tower, and eavesdrop on the English speaking tourists

... I lived in the city of Livorno from 1976 to 1981... Firenze is probably my favorite "old" city in the whole world) ...

I also have a gold wedding band that was purchased on the Ponte Vecchio... Ricordo con piacere. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Thanks Sergio. I was there in 1958, courtesy of the United States Marine Corps, with travel arrangements made and supplied by the U.S. Navy. It was, and apparently still is a beautiful place.

Thanks for posting this, Sergio, it brings back many happy memories. By coincidence my wife and I were there less than a month ago at the start of a three week bicycling vacation in Tuscany. We stayed at the Hotel Brunelleschi and spent three days walking the streets of Florence, our favorite Italian city by far.
Best regards, Norm

Thanks for the link Sergio, I would dearly love to travel there. When I see architecture like that I often wonder if there are any craftsmen left that are capable of producing buildings like those.
