Pisa! Pisa! Pisa!

We took a trip down to Tuscany to visit Pisa and Lucca.  The first day, we saw Pisa, which, as I said last year, is a great and surprising town. We went with Chiara's Zio Marco (no pics to prove he was there!) and Zia Raffaella, Nonna, Jeri, Bree, and Chiara and the kids. James was out of town for work. Raffaella, Bree and I climbed the tower. Norah was VERY upset that she couldn't go (only age 8 and up allowed) and made me promise to bring her back when she is of age! 

 There it is!

 It sure is leany!

 Zia Raffaella and Bree at the top of the tower. The horizon is straight, but the fence looks leany because of the angle of the tower!
