Florence at night has a certain magical atmosphere especially if it has just rained. The City lights come on and the cobblestone streets glisten and sparkle. Apperitivo with drinks is usually where nightlife begins. Fancy cocktails with exotic names are served in glamorous glasses while Florentines eat small portions of food before dinner. Women usually wear dark colors striking a contrast with their red lipstick that never smudges but does leave a kiss-like mark on the edge of their glass. Street lights mingle while Florentines start to flirt with the idea of relaxing and just waiting to see what adventure the night will bring them.
