The Ligurian Sea as viewed from our train to
Viareggio
|
 |
More Ligurian Sea
|
 |
Our train passed through Carrara, so we got a glimpse
of the mountains from which Michelangelo selected his
marble. We thought that white stuff was snow, but
were told it is marble.
|
 |
We arrived in Viareggio
|
 |
We can cross off having touched the Mediterranean Sea
(via the Ligurian Sea at Viareggio)

Ditto for William

 |
The marina at Viareggio
|
 |
We took a day trip to Pisa from Viareggio. This
is the Arno, with the church of Santa Maria della Spina on
the shore.
|
 |
Does anybody in the entire universe not know
what this is? We were struggling to figure out which is
more famous, the Leaning Tower, Michelangelo's David,
or Da Vinci's Last Supper, all of which we were privileged
to see on this trip.
|
 |
William ascended the tower and enjoyed the view.
|
 |
Elaine got a little artsy and took this cool picture
of the tower through an arch in the city wall.
|
 |
We took the train from Viareggio to Florence, or next destination.
