Pisa... again

Pisa. I have gone there so many times to see the lovely leaning tower. I am very fortunate to be able to do so and it is nice because it's only about an hour from Florence. Our plane left from Pisa so we decided to go a bit early to be able to see the Leaning Tower and take the mandatory cheesy pictures. We got to the tower just fine, took about 100 pictures trying to get it juuuusst right and then sat in the soft green grass in the sun.
 Coming from Florence, grass is such a nice treat! We noticed a lot of people coming and going from a different entrance so when we left, we decided that that must be a short cut. Well it definitely wasn't. We walked around the outskirts of the city before finally finding the Arno. I was a little stressed about getting to the airport (even though it's literally 4 minutes from the train station) because of our scenic route. We had planned to take the 4:55 train and made it to the train station at 4:56. I was a little/ a lot stressed and I felt like I was failing Beth so we just took a cab to the airport. It was the best 6 euro I've spent. We made it with plenty of time and were able to even grab a water and rest before getting on our plane to Nuremberg! Our European adventure was about to being!
