Pisa, Oct 24, 2006

Pisa is probably a small little town and only the field of miracles to boast about. But, the leaning tower is worth the visit. Somewhere someone had named it one of the wonders and truly so. The first look at it evokes a feeling of how cute it is. The tower is not very tall but is appreciably leaning. It was good to see fewer crowds after Rome. Every one tried to stop the tower from leaning and some even tried to push it further to make it fall, all so for the pictures. We both decided not to climb up. We had met some Indian people in the hostel in Rome we kept meeting them every now and then in Pisa between train station and to the tower site. They were students with IIM Bangalore doing an exchange program in a business school in France. The field of miracles has a few more buildings and all of them were neat although they seemed to leaning as well. Even the trees seemed to be slanting a little. This was our little stop over for a lesser known place in Italy called Cinque Terre.
