Florence & wine tasting at a Tuscan castle

 Hey there! We recently decided to take off with some good friends and family (six of us) in June on a crazy 12 day trip through Britain and the Mediterian! We went through the medeterian on a Norweigan cruise where  we were in a ,new, crazy, exciting you better be ready to walk a million miles a day different stop everyyy day! Us girls were really looking forward to this day because we were stopping in Florence and then off to a castle for wine tasting...and it did not dissapoint! his excursion through the cruise line so we were not too sure how it would go since none of us had traveled on this cruise line before. BUT it was great would highly recommend.

 Trying to get a good picture

 I was not expecting so much food I was thinking just some wine but they really got into it 
and talked a lot about the wine they make and how it has evolved over the years which honestly for what we paid at $150 a person I am glad there was some food..


 This was the cellar of the castle where they still make wine all these years later..a family still owns and lives in the castle...can't even imagine!

I wish that we would of had more time in Florence..only a couple hours. But that is how it goes when your on a cruise you only have so much time at each spot. But we had a awesome day and loved every minute of it! I will talk more about the cruise and what we thought of that too.
We were also in Spain, London, Paris, Rome, too so I'll show those too here soon for you guys! Chow!
