While staying in Cinque Terre, Me, Michelle, Angela, Connie and Courtney decided to take a day trip to the near by towns of Pisa and Florence. Both were beautiful and full of history. We didn't get to spend a ton of time in each, but the day was definitely a success. When we arrived in Pisa, the train station was in the middle of nowhere. We wandered blindly seeking out a leaning tower, and thankfully there was a HUGE crowd of tourists we could follow. When in doubt, follow the tourist in Europe - they'll never fail you. Our time in Florence was a whirlwind, but we saw some beautiful buildings, Il Duomo, the garden of statues and enjoyed some really authentic markets. All in all, it was probably the most successful day trip ever.
Our first picture in Pisa - the tower actually leans!
Almost looks photoshopped, huh? Photo cred to Connie, who was the only one of us to really figure out how to make these shots work (I on the other hand was an awful photographer).
More handstands.
Such a fun group of ladies to travel with.
Angela, Courtney, Connie and Michelle in Florence!
Il Duomo
Probably the most beautiful door in the world.
Oh, the statues.
