Despite a steady downpour, Florentines came out in droves last night to listen to bands in the piazzas and douse each other with prosecco.
At the appointed hour, the Roman candles that punctuated the afternoon turned into a raucous percussion in the dark. (The rain-blurry photo above is of the "official" fireworks at Palazzo Pitti.) The pops continue today...
Jack penned a banner--"Buon Anno and Happy New Year!"--and leaned out from the bathroom balcony to spread his
cheer. Unfortunately, the brown cardboard made it look more like an "Out of work. Any help is appreciated" sign....
