Pisa

We kicked off our Italy / France adventure by flying in to Pisa en route to Florence (why? because its cheap!). After waiting for a bus for 45 minutes until figuring out that all bus drivers were on strike, we caught a train to the city center and went to go see what all the leaning tower hubbub was about. After seeing the tower we must admit that it is quite a spectacle and a great example of poor engineering. We took the obligatory photos as you can see below and then headed to the train for Florence. There's really not much else to Pisa - good for a half day but that's about it. On to more exciting stories!
