Andrea and Len,
We're in as well. Who are you booking through and did they give you any additional offers--pp grats, etc?

I'd like to find a group of 6-8 to rent a private transport in Florence. We've done it the past 2 years and for the same price as the "big bus" that cannot enter the city. Also, we can arrange for a great wine tasting lunch in town with a vinter we know.
