Above: The Cathedral of Santa Croce
Right and Below: statue of Dante
Right: Boar found in Loggia del Mercato Nuovo (o del Porcellino)
Alle and I found this small statue near our hotel, in a square that is usually an open market.
It's believed that to touch the boar's snout will either a) bring good luck,
b) bring money, or
c) bring one back to Firenze.
I reckoned I'd be happy with any of the above, so... but I'm not superstitious, really!
Home, home again...
