Italy - Pisa

She's Still Leaning
I'd last seen the tower 20 years ago and don't recall much though she appears to be cleaner and spiffier now.  We stopped by on the way to taking Ming to the airport.  Speaking of Ming, I forgot she had so many allergies.  Imagine coming to Italy and not drinking coffee, not eating any milk products, tomatoes or citrus fruits.  I had to scramble to learn phrases like "Lei e alergico ai laticini, agrumi e pomodori."  She ate lots of meats, breads and olive oil as well as more than one glass of prosecco.


We toured the grounds which include a church and a mausoleum.

Unfortunately we couldn't get into the church because there was a mass taking place.
