Italy #9
Today we caught the train around 10 am and travelled a short distance to Pisa where we stored our luggage. We walked to the tower area (quite a long walk) and some of us paid to climb the tower. Felt weird as we went round and round on the marble steps. On one side you would lean out and on another, in. We had two hours there. Hot and we were tired from not enough sleep. It was OK -- something one must do when in the area.
We then got the train with one transfer to Sienna. Again lots of up and down the stairs to change tracks. The elevator got used a lot. The ride up to the hotel was long and windy -- went up, around, down, up again, etc. We were supposed to have an orientation walk but noone wants it. Tomorrow. Supper at 7.
