Die Nacht war kalt, 10°, klar wir sind im Gebirge aber dafür sollte uns der ganze restliche Tag mit Sonnenschein und hohen Temperaturen verwöhnen.

Walking down the narrow, cobbled streets of Pisa, packs weighing us down and only a vague sense of direction, we felt a part of the urban Italian life.  Washing hung from the windows of the apartment buildings and neighbours  yelled at each other from across the street or from balcony to balcony.  We trudged along following our noses, and found an 800 year old church standing...
