Tower of Pisa

italy by wildairandhopsMay 31, 2017May 31, 2017

Christopher’s first impression as we laid eyes on the Tower of Pisa: “Man, it is crooked as f***.”

It really was.

It was smaller than we both imagined, but it was certainly leaning. You can climb the tower, but only a small amount of people are allowed up at one time for safety reasons. We chose to admire from afar, and also ~~judge~~ admire all of the tourists taking the obligatory posed photos. It was people watching gold.

It took us about 45 minutes on a train from Florence. We walked around it for about an hour, bought a gelato and a magnet and we were back on the train. A quick half-day trip that was totally worth it, if only for this photo:

Love from Italy,

  Zero photoshop! I actually don’t know how to use it (if I do need something photoshopped, I send it to Hollis!)
