Kiwi Jay:
Peach may I say that if you look back onto Page 5 then look to the photo of a turtle shaped building, well you may have already gone through this lol, but at the bottom of the photo it says Bad Boy Building so I looked it up and it came up with this:

A self-confessed architectural "bad boy" early in his career, Italy's Renzo Piano shows few signs of mellowing with age.

The son of a builder, he vaulted to fame with bold designs like Paris's Pompidou Center and recently made his mark on Rome with a performing arts complex known as "the three turtles" because of its rounded, shell-like shape.

And it is in Rome, Italy and we are talking about Florence, Italy

But how many have broken vanes like that? We'd need some luck, but we might be able to find it.
As for the far-leaping, that looked a little hard on the heels.  :lol: An "amazing" version will probably be arranged.

Kiwi Jay:
I believe it is the bobili kafeehouse?? that is it I think

georgiapeach:
That's the kind of creative thinking we are talking about! But unfortunately in this case I think "bad boy building" was just Boingo's pet name for it?

And i think we definitely have it here as the coffee house in Boboli Gardens--check out the video here...
