Buona Pasqua in Firenze
















If you missed the blowing up of the cart in front of Santa Maria del Fiore, you might have seen these wonderful Chiana cows being walked through the streets of Florence. They are beautiful animals, one of the oldest breeds of cattle in Italy, bred in Tuscany, they date from Roman times, and are revered throughout Italy for their wonderful temperaments and delicious meat. These lovely cattle were very beautiful on their promenade through Florence, and seemed relaxed in all of their Easter finery.
