Touring Through Florence

Wow, I feel behind on my blog so here the last few weeks go. Easter weekend, there was a large Festival outside the Duomo. Around 10 in the morning, there was a celebration with medieval costumes, trumpets and also a large cart/tower. At 10am sharp, the bells blared and the cart started to explode. The cart was pulled in front of the Duomo by white oxen but the crowd was too intense I wasn't able to get a good picture. Enjoy!

The cart itself after the damage was done.
All excited for Easter Sunday at the Duomo.
The Cart exploding with fireworks - a mini fourth of July celebration.
More explosions and smoke. 
The Cart before the damage, explosions.
