A couple of January days

I've returned to life in Italy. I actually was able to sleep on the flights over, as they weren't very full so I had an extra seat or two next to me.

January is one of my favorite months in Florence, so I'm glad I'm at least getting a couple of days of it this year. During these winter months it's like you have the city to yourself. No lines for museums, fewer tourists in the streets. And when the sun is out the sky is bright blue.

Flatmates are well. The dog's nose appears to have turned a shade of pink (formerly brown). We don't know why. I thought it was my imagination, but then Franka asked Buska if he showed zia (aunt) his pink nose. He seems proud of it.

I'm hoping to be more social this weekend, and I'll check in at the studio next week.
