Italy Trip - Day 4

Date: 22nd June 2009
Venue: Pisa, Italy

Last day of our Italy trip - Pisa. We went to Pisa by train. Again,
We found some difficulties in finding the place of the B&B.
Finally we found it and to my surprise, the house's design looks
like Malaysia's house. I was very surprise to see the plants
where you could hardly see in Europe countries. It was a sunny
day!!!!!

Then, we started to walk around the city. We could notice the city
is surrounded by walls.





Ta da!!!! The Leaning Tower!!! I have finally seen it with my eyes.
I always see a lot of pictures where they use the cut and paste
method to edit the pictures so that the person can be seen
standing beside the Leaning Tower.... But hey!!!! I was really
there to take those funny pictures with the tower.... Not only us....
i can say that everyone who visit this place will surely post and the
photographer will try all their best to capture the angle like what
are shown in the pictures below.

We heard that Italy is famous for it's coffee but we have not really sat
down and enjoyed the coffee at the coffee shop. So, we decided
to order a hot and cold coffee. Actually it's nothing so special
about the coffee, it's just about the relaxing moment and
the enjoyment of the atmosphere at that coffee shop.... haha...






Then, we came to Piazza dei Cavalieri (the Knight's Square)
.





Again... it's dinner time.... Well, since it's the last night we were in Italy....
We decided we should have nice dinner......Wow.... i can say that
it's the nicest dinner that we have ever had when we were on trip....
It's only about 26 Euro per set dinner!!!!!!!!!!! Too bad that we
could not remember the name of the restaurant!!!!!

Then, before we left Italy, we decided to visit the Leaning Tower
for the last time. Although we had a lot of pictures with the
Leaning Tower, we still capture more on the last day
of our trip.







Back to B&B.....
