Oh! The sunshine!
Spring is trying so hard to break out in Florence. In between days and days of rain.
Mimosa shrub, a clear sign of spring coming!
I joyfully scroll Facebook everyday. It does nourish my mind and mood often. Happily. And sometimes the images/sayings I see make me laugh. And feel better about American politics, which are in a sorry state.
I learned something new: the Korean gesture for love. See the emoji below! 🫰🫶🫰
get back, lauretta! 
does that sign say death to the USA?
Yes it does. I wouldn’t say I encounter that feeling much here, but it obviously exists in some places/minds. I can’t say I blame them at the moment.
i hate being judged by trump standards and knowing that people wish me dead because of him. I wish they could understand that we are not all in support of this government or lack of government. I don’t feel like I can go anywhere else now because Americans are so hated. But then I can’t afford to travel anyway. Sure would like to spend time in Italy though. I had half a day in Florence years ago and I barely scratched the surface.
I don’t think you have to worry here. We aren’t hated and I feel safe traveling anywhere in Europe. Of course there are always graffitists who like to write something, but I don’t think it is particularly meaningful.
