Hudson and Mamaw
Saturday trip to Pisa
I like the dumpsters here! All the trash goes underground! That's cool.
looking at the artwork 
We climbed to the top of the leaning tower! 
great views all around

You really have to watch your step inside though...the stairs are literally worn down in many places!
Bells at the top


Trying to get a group selfie 

Yes, this is a 2 way path...be careful! ;)

Katherine made sure that Mamaw did NOT fall down any of these slick steps!




We ate at this restaurant last time we were in Pisa. It is so good!

We love trying the different homemade pastas
stop in Florence for very short visit...just wanted to show as much to Mamaw as possible
