We took the train from Firenze and spent 3 nights in Pisa. Pisa - the city itself is loaded with tourists, especially the area of the bell tower of the city's cathedral, aka the leaning tower. The city also served us as a good base for two of our day trips: to Lucca and to Livorno. The tower leans, indeed. We went up the circular staircase which turned out to be a very special experience of missing balance and coordination. Down on the lawn countless tourists were standing around with their hands in the air, pretending to push the tower. Given that every minute of daylight there are 10 people holding up the tower for a shot, short maths: 10 pics a minute x 60 minutes an hour x 12 hours of average daylight x 30 days a month. This makes 216000 photos a month. So we skipped this "very unique" experience.
