Pisa Here We Come!

Jan 06, 2009 23:02

I was not looking forward to getting out of bed in the wee hours (read: fffrrreezing) to catch our flight to Pisa, Italy.

You could see Florence was a little bit sleep deprived.



Pisa was a lot warmer than London --thank goodness. It was a little stressful being a passenger in Wei's Italian-driven car. For one, we had a big-ass car for the narrow streets in Pisa. For two, Italy is on left-hand drive and Wei had some trouble initially orientating himself.

The Leaning Tower was a lot bigger in my mind; it wasn't located at the end of the narrow walkway and defitely not part of a church compound.








It was a comic relief seeing most of the tourists do the cliche poses ie. supporting the tower. Wei was too late to catch a series of 5 people doing different things --would have made a great shot.



Kissing some tower?

From then on, we took a 2 hour drive to San Gimignano where we stayed for the next 3 nights.

Press for more Pisa pictures

BTW, this photo snapped of Darren & Flo reminded me of this:
