Welcome to a Room with a View

Mr. Hunter would like to share with you a bit of the bliss
that comes from waking up in in Florence, Italy.
How you pad across the darkened room, 
how you reach up to unlatch the heavy white interior shutters,
and there, just outside your window,
the glory of your particular view.

The sun is rising over the bell towers, over the red rooftops of Florence.
You are on holiday here. You have the chance to ask yourself:
How shall I spend this delicious day?



Buongiorno!

                        

Here's a longer look at the morning view,
this time featuring a hint of the Duomo and the Palazzo Vecchio
and, ah, the chiming church bells!
