b'Next to the St. Regis Grand in Rome, the Grand Hotel in Florence is one of my favorite hotels in Italy.It was a long car ride from Venice and we were both tired, but when we opened the doors to our suite with a view of the Arno River, we were in paradise. This was one of the greatest moments in my life. My wife looked at me with a big smile and I just looked back and coolly said, Yeah, this will do. Inside, however, I was ready to explode with excitement. The series of wonderful days we had together, starting with this moment, are something I will never forget.58'
