It's the Leaning Tower of Pisa!

I was pretty excited to be walking in the streets of Pisa.  When we got off of the train in Pisa,  I whipped out my Rick Steve's travel guide. I was hoping that Rick would guide us straight to the Leaning Tower.  I was suprised to see that it only took us forty-five minutes to get to the central part of Pisa from the train station.  The train ride was three hours and fifty minutes. When we got off of the train, of course we had to have a good lunch first! :)




Then, we  began our journey to find the Leaning Tower.  Before I came to Italy, that is one monument that I wanted to be sure and see.   After walking through the quiet city of Pisa, we finally arrived in the central area.  We found out that the only thing, I mean only exciting thing in Pisa, was the central area.  Finally, we made it! Then, I saw it!  IT'S THE LEANING TOWER OF PISA!! My friends and I were very excited.  I was definitely walking a little faster when i saw it.  I always imagined it to be a very large monument, but it actually wasn't as tall as I thought it was going to be.  It was incredible though!


Then,  we had to whip out our cameras and do the classic, "pisa pose" and try to hold it up with our hands. We each took about twenty pictures! We couldn't get enough of it. ENJOY THE PICTURES!  Everyone must see this amazing tower!
