Pisa

I came across a group of pictures that I thought were taken with film camera. Instead, they were lost in a "to be sorted" file that Brian created. They weren't in there before and I'm going to ask him about it later. Oh well. It's a set of random photos from various times in our life, but most of them were taken when we lived in Germany. This one should be obvious, it's the infamous Leaning Tower of Pisa. We were so busy on this weekend getaway thanks to Ryan Air (that's a whole 'nother post, or maybe not) that we didn't actually go inside the tower. We walked around it then took the train to Florence where we spent most of our weekend. I think we also had a rental car, and spent some time driving the countryside. It's silly, really, but on trips like these we sometimes like to explore something mundane, like the grocery store or market, sometimes shop in a regular clothing store. You see, Brian and I like to learn about an entire culture, not just tourist attractions. When in another country, you'll find things are different. We sometimes find ourselves wishing we had rented an apartment for the weekend so we could buy the groceries and cook. Getting to know the local area is so much more fun when you step outside the box.
