Pisa, Italy

After docking at the Italian port, La Spezia, we boarded a tour bus for the one hour drive to the town of Pisa.  We arrived at the San Rossore National Reserve and from there we took a trolley to Pisa's main square, The Field of Miracles.  The Field of Miracles has several magnificent buildings including the famous, Leaning Tower of Pisa.

The tower was constructed in 1180 AD and is made of Italian marble.  Shortly after construction began, the tower began to tilt.  Efforts to straighten it up have been met with mixed results and it is ~16 feet off from perpendicular.
