To survive (with pleasure) I seek out a caffe shakerato alle Cantinetta dei Verrazano. It’s an iced espresso with a touch of milk.

Walking a bit took me by the Duomo, and today, in the heat and under that famous Tuscan sun, the campanile reflected to sun as if it were a mirror. I tried to capture it with my camera, but you may have to take my word for it.

And, back at home and thankful for the a/c, I bought some art supplies to fool around with. I’ll let you know if I have any luck painting!
