Leaning
for Pisa From
the Cinque Terre via La Spezia we arrived for a few hours in Pisa to see
the tower, Duomo, and necessary landmarks. We originally didn't plan to
visit Pisa, but decided to after being mislead with train schedules from
a lady. The good news was that we came to Pisa the reopening day of the
tower since the early 1990's. The bad new was that we figured this out
a bit late and didn't have ourselves together in time to be in the last
tour up the tower. But you can say we were the first to see the last of
the first people go up?..... I will be signing autographs if you are interested. |

| In La Spezia before Pisa we relaxed in the warm sunshine feasting on our vino rosso, proscuitto, bread and cheese. | For awhile proscuitto,
bread, vino rosso, and cheese became my favorite for cheap snacking. |
