St. Croce in Florence - Friday

Four famous people were buried in St. Croce in Florence: the artist Michelangelo, Galileo the scientist, Machiavelli the politician, Rossini the musician. That is an unbelievable amount of talent, but Florence was the birthplace of so much talent. I am hoping osmosis was working for me in Florence and I will come back to Michigan and create, create, create.
There was evidence of a great flood in 1966 (the worst ever in Florence) about 10-12 feet high. Many works of art were destroyed and others took years to restore.
