Eurotrip 3.0: Pisa...



The drive from Rome all the way upto Pisa was a tiring one. While it’s on most tourist itineraries, it was forcibly on ours as a single drive all the way up to Monaco would have been too tough to do.

After catching the Fontain de Triveli in Rome, we set out on our drive to Pisa. Lunch was at a place on the highway, and wasn’t really much to write home about. On arriving in Pisa, we were treated to its famous foul odour, which is ever-present throughout the town. After checking into our hotel room, we drove out into town to grab some grub. The restaurants weren’t all that great so we ended up having some shawarma at a ‘Turkish’ joint run by a Bangladeshi (again!).

We dropped by the leaning tower in the morning, and it was utterly unimpressive after the grandeur of Rome & the Vatican. After the usual pics of holding up the tower, leaning against it, etc., we were off! Next stop, Monaco!
