it's a joy

Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."

Pisa

See the first posts here: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

Pisa was hilarious. It was in my top places that I loved on our trip. The fact that you see this crazy leaning tower that you have seen in books since you were a kid was kind of surreal. We kept saying to each other, "I can't believe we're here."


This is the view you see as soon as you walk into the city gates. So funny. These monuments were built of this gorgeous white stone. The tower was actually added after the cathedral to just be a bell tower to compliment it. By the time they started work on the third floor, it had already started leaning. Now, this little bell tower is one of the most famous buildings in Italy. The irony kills me.


Another view of the tower with the cathedral in front of it.


This is Jerod sending a message to our HORRIBLE tour guide, "Please stop talking now..."


The front of the cathedral with the tower just behind.


Isn't it CRAZY?



Jerod is very proud of both these shots. Especially the reflection in the sunglasses.



We HAD to do it.

Tomorrow is David number 2 and 3.
