I was up relatively early today as I was heading home. I wanted to get to Pisa Airport put my bag in left luggage and look around Pisa.
I was tempted to go around the Duomo but given the hour and a half wait I wandered into town
I went into the Botanic Garden and had a sit and enjoyed the quiet. And the views of the tower are interesting.
So back to town
I've been to Pisa many times but never managed to visit Santa Maria della Spina which was built in 1230 and enlarged in 1325. In 1871 the church was dismantled and rebuilt on a higher level due to dangerous infiltration of water from the Arno river.
I stopped for a coffee
Lot's of sculpture in the town
We saw this in Lucca
So I was back to the Railway station and got the Pisa Mover to the airport and home!
A great holiday!
