You Mayn't Believe It, But

I called my wife when I arrived in Florence, and while talking with her, I remarked, "One thing that totally hit me as soon as I got into Florence is how modern the city is compared to Siena."

"What?!" she said, "Florence is the most ancient-looking city I have ever been in."

"Well," I replied, "be prepared for something a *lot* more ancient-looking when we come back here."
