Travels with GG

I'll Torre Pendente

Twenty two years, a substantial amount of experience, and maybe even some bit of skepticism later, the Leaning Tower of Pisa still stands magestic. It left me as awestruck as it did then. A small regret that I could not climb those well worn steps with a dip in the middle as I remember them from all those years ago. Tens of people were caught on film in the act of trying to "support" the tower. I couldn't wipe the grin off my face as I sighted ancient Fiats, and made my way around saying "Bongiorno" and "Grazie".
