SB Discovery #2 - Pisa

Ellen and I went to Pisa after arriving in Florence. There's a lot more to offer than just the leaning tower. We didn't go up it; however, Em and Liz did..30 euros later! The tower is definitely the highlight but we enjoyed walking around the other parts of Pisa as well. It's a small, quaint little town and we liked getting away from the city for a day.
People biked like crazy in Pisa. It was amazing. There is a whole network of streets designated only for walking and biking where cars are not allowed! We saw a lot of little shops and restaurants lining the streets. We wandered a lot but Ellen was really sick so we had to cut our time in Pisa short. Interestingly enough, on a main walkway of Pisa, we found condom dispensers! So much for sexual privacy and abstinence! Could you imagine the outcry in America if that was placed in a town like McHenry? Surely, surburban moms would panic. Ha!

Overall we really enjoyed our day-trip to Pisa. After hopping on a train, we arrived back in Florence at night.
