Tuesday 5th July 2005 - Pisa

We found out who the Gerries were, Günter & Margaret, as they gave us their address. We said our goodbyes & paid the hotel bll of E159 for coffees & wine etc. I drove via Fucecchio to Pisa, parked after finding the Leaning Tower with some difficulty & we went round the Campo Santi, which we had missed before, with its splendid murals & the Cathedral again, as it is such a building.

Then, a proper full Italian meal in a nearby restaurant for E45. Avis had scaloppine in wine & I had sea-food. We took the car back to Hertz & checked in at tghe airport. It was cloudy for much of the time today & a strong wind blew through Pisa, which is an interesting town, of which I saw too much perhaps, as I had found myself driving through the old part. The 'plane was late but the snack, a bit better than going out & we were soon at APH to pick up the truck. We were home before 2130 & did little except open the post, drink real English tea & collapse.
