Florence with Family: Touring the towns in Tuscany

While we were in Florence, we took a tour around some of the quaint towns in Tuscany - Siena and San Gimignano and then went to Pisa (will include photos in a separate entry). It was a pretty long trip sightseeing but nonetheless breathtaking and absolutely gorgeous. The lunch we had at the farm imbibing wine, eating freshly made fettucini in a bolognese sauce and savoring on various cheeses and salumi was absolutely deelish!

And when we weren't out and about, we cooked fun Italian dinners at home from local ingredients from the market and drank enough Chianti to turn us red.

Tristin loved it, Bella liked it and Ashley (Tristin's cousin) had a blast. And of course, the parents and the family (adults) couldn't get enough.
