Livorno, Italy is known for its status as a major port city with a historic center featuring canals, or Venezia Nuova (New Venice). It is also famous for its fresh seafood, particularly the stew cacciucco, its grand waterfront promenade, the Terrazza Mascagni, and its 16th-century fortresses, the Fortezza Vecchia and Fortezza Nuova. Additionally, the city is a hub for commerce, industry, and a diverse population due to its history as a free port.  Thank you Google...

AS I have mentioned before tour guides are great and they have great  knowledge but unfortunately you  can only retain small parts of their information.


My first expresso this day with a fresh cheese danish. The dough was delightful.



A caramel Gelato hit the spot.


On to Luxury.  There is a lot of that in all the cities but as a tourist I am cautious.  Difficult to tell a Euro from American Dollar so I was there for the enjoyment and not so much to shop.







Lots of chestnuts 

Artichokes'
