• Pisa: Day 5

    May 23–24, 2025 in Italy ⋅ ⛅ 66 °F

    The first thing I noticed about Pisa when we stepped off the bus was that it smelled like flowers.

    Overall, Pisa was meh. It didn’t have much to do, it rained when we were at the leaning tower, and we got tourist trapped for dinner. The highlight was the waiter at lunch who was super funny.
    We did also take a Ferris wheel ride and could see the mountains from the top.
    We also got really good gelato. I got vanilla and hazelnut and it was TASTY. Best I’ve had so far.
    At our tourist trap dinner, Bex ordered a pizza with sausage and got a pizza with hotdog pieces on it. I had a decent Bellini, but nothing to write home about.
    We also found a really yummy bottled drink called “breeze”. It was like a seagrams but better. We had ruby grapefruit flavor.

    Overall, that was Pisa. Probably not a place I’d go back to unless Nick really wanted to go.
