Days 11 and 12: Pisa, Florence and Rome
... painted buildings and lampposts along the river. So we walked down to the Square of Miracles (loose translation) to see the Leaning Tower. We had so much fun just walking around, going into the cathedral and crying, and taking tons of stupid tourist pictures that were awesome. Now, the Tower and everything else was great, but the real highlight was an unplanned, 1-second event. Here's a little background: We were walking on the street and my mom ...
So much beauty!
... rebuilt in 1345 atop three large stone arches which supported a wide street lined with small workshops. The shops were originally used by Butchers and Vegetable vendors.

The metro is still open because it is Saturday which is so very good (the metro line we are staying near has been closing each night at 9:00pm because they are working on a third metro line). We are shortly arriving at our apartment ...

It was so neat to hear the chanting while being inside such an old, dimly lit space. It was like traveling back in time.
Then we walked down the large hill a little bit to get to the Piazzale Michelangelo. This is a spot where there is a large plaza where you can see ...
