Florence - Internet Access?
 

My husband will not be going with me when I visit Florence next month, but I'd like to be able to keep in touch with him via e-mail and maybe share some pictures as I go along. Does anyone know the location in central Florence of a place such as a cyber-cafe or library where I could use a computer with web access? <BR> <BR>Thanks!

Although it appears that they are intent on selling you their book (which I have never bought), you can get essentially the entire contents of the book by clicking on "Go to the Internet CAfe guide online" and then on "Text list of cybercafes". <BR> <BR>Best wishes, <BR> <BR>Rex <BR>

hi, <BR> <BR>there are several, Time Out also lists them www.timeout.com - click on Florence. <BR> <BR>there is one right on the other side of the Ponte Vecchio (the altrarno side). once you have crossed the bridge, make the first right and it is right there... <BR> <BR>Beth
