And then there's the unbaptized...

At dusk, wee found our way to Piazza Limbo...where Santissimi Apostoli is. Catholics believe that babies that die before they're baptized can't go to heaven so they go to limbo land. This is their church, and where Florence's unbaptized babies were once buried.

The church's interior has a profound tranquility - almost palpable.




Piazza Signoria was like the ultimate hard body peep show. You'll understand what I'm talking about in just a second.

For now, let's cool down with hot chocolate at the French Rivoire, the oldest and finest chocolaterias (is that a word?) in Florence.

When the help staff is snobby like they are there--you know you're in for a treat! This was the best hot chocolate we've had in Italy -- and you know, Sicily's is pretty darn good.
