Day 6 Italy and Tuscany, the last day of seeing so many impressive and beautiful things and places. To top it all off we went to visit Pisa. My first association with Pisa had and has been (and still is) the leaning tower of Pisa. When I was a kid and someone had built something […]
On our way to Volterra, from the place near San Gimignano where we were staying, we drove a very curvy way and to our amazement the countryside started changing from the beautiful vineyards to a rather rough landscape.
