Last night I was looking up events in Florence for the week and found out there was an annual food truck festival taking place. We went off on another journey in Florence and probably walked about 3 miles today but landed upon an awesome food truck festival, super cool park (my favorite yet), a walk along the river, and the kids favorite part…a carnival! Sabs rode her first rollercoaster and Sophie went on her first Ferris Wheel. Of course both loved both. And the little charmers struck again getting free dinner from a food truck for being so cute. They were dancing and hugging all around the festival. We ate some fried pizza, drank some good beer, and had the most awful vegan pasta that tasted like tea. Surprisingly Sabs likes tea pasta. I dont know how she ate it, it was seriously disgusting. The food trucks were all modern and trendy looking. It was pretty awesome.

Sophie wanted to sit down in this patch of flowers (and obviously pretend she was a disney princess). Well it didnt last long since she came running out screaming that a plant stung her. For the next 30 minutes we heard non stop about some stinging plant. I’m pretty convinced she got bit by some ants b/c i saw little bites but she was certain it was some stinging plant. She may have set some record for talking/complaining about a stinging plant. It prob. went on and off until she fell asleep that night. Every time we passed a plant that looked similar (and it was a long walk home), she was reminded of her stinging incident and of course had to remind all of us.

Now on to the food truck festival called Street Eats. There were trucks from all over Italy with all different types of food.

After chowing we walked back along the river until we hit the carnival

We passed this on the way home. Def. one of the coolest pieces of art that i have seen on the street. May be hard to see b/c it was getting dark.

And here are just a few randoms before we left the apt
