Pisa
Finally we have made it to Pisa. Train station in Florence was a nightmare as we missed the first train as the ticket line was so long. Finally got some help with the tickets and found someone to tell us where to go. This particular train to Pisa , goes to La Spezia. 1 hr in the sweltering carriage and we walked 25 minutes in 33° heat to be stunned by the spectacle of the leaning tower and the cathedral and surrounding buildings. I was starting to fade as had a but of a tummy upset. We discovered you get free tickets to enter the cathedral but they are timed so we had a leisurely lunch (best spaghetti cabonnara ever) to recharge. Made it back to Florence at 5pm. Pisa was amazing and even my favorite shop Desigual. Mostly closed on a Sunday though.
Florence
This city is a dream. I am in love love love with it. Tonight we have had another amazing meal of asparagus risotto and cheese ravioli with meat sauce.
Pasta will never be the same again.
