A late night stroll on the Arno...

This beautiful 150 mile long river starts in the Northern Apennines flowing it's way south to Arezzo where it turns northwest; it proceeds generally west, through Florence and Pisa, to empty into the Ligurian Sea.


The Arno valley is famous for its scenery. In 1966 a great flood on the Arno heavily damaged the art treasures of Florence.


After visiting the leaning tower we decided to take a little stroll down the river.


and make a few memories of our own.
