The train journey was a bit delayed but it wasn't too bad as we arrived at half one so we had McDonalds for our lunch. Our check in time was two clock so we arrived at perfect time.
We walked to the hotel and I was sweating rather bad! Very attractive.
The hotel was very old fashioned, lots of art works around, beautiful corridors and proper wooden doors.
We went up to our room and we were a bit disappointed as bed was so bouncy! There was no fan! I liked how old fashioned it was but would be much better if there was a splash of modern in the room!
We rested for a bit before heading out to see the leaning tower. We walked and it wasn't that far at all.
I knew it was leaning tower but I didn't expect it to be that lean!
There were few men trying to sell watches and sunglasses. We had sunglasses on when they tried to sell them to us so we just pointed to our sunglasses so they can go away.
We got to ticket office and asked to climb up the tower. We noticed on the screen that next climb was at six, it was like four clock when we arrived and as soon we mentioned we were deaf...the lady over the desk started signing! We had to sign some paperwork and I couldn't help myself smiling at how they put us as 'unfit visitors'. When we said we would like to climb up for six clock, the lady looked surprised and I realised it might mean we could climb up now so I asked if it was possible and she said yes!
We waited outside of the tower for ten minutes before being let in the tower. We climbed up and it was worth it. The view was lovely and we took some nice photographs. But when we were going back down, it was a bit slippery as it was marble stone steps and we wore flip flops!
Jacob zoomed off whilst I walked down very slowly as I almost slipped twice!
We had look around some museums around the Pisa tower and they were boring! We had our dinner nearby the tower and we ordered roast beef as it has been a while we had some beef. We were so excited and to our disbelief the beef was almost raw. It was sliced thinly and covered with funny taste sauce. We had like five small circle beef slices and when I tried it, I could taste the rawness so we were really disappointed! We were grateful we had some chips and green salad.
We went to supermarket to get bananas and yogurt for us to eat. We watched some sports on tv before bed.

Abbie Oh that's lovely going up the Pisa Tower as we didn't. Wonder how many steps are there?
