Pitiful Pisa AND Lovely Lucca - Italy


On with the postings!  I'll get through Italy sooner or later!

I'm dedicating just a very teeny tiny portion to Pisa (ok, pretty large compared to Lucca where I found out I hadn't charged my camera battery the night before ... :(  )

I thought it was amusing to see this statue as I saw it in Targu Mures, Romania and I was told it was original there, but I saw this one in Pisa and in a few other towns in Italy....  I have no clue what it means...

Walking towards the old walls of Lucca, just a short drive from Pisa.  Lovely lovely Lucca!  I would go here many more times....

Going into the city - this goes through the walls of the city and takes you to the old town.  Look up Lucca sometime - its a really amazing city!
