We were both very excited to have found a tour that covered Pisa and Cinque Terre - two places we hard originally wanted to squeeze in. We swallowed not only the price of the tour but our train reservation for today and our night in Milan and paid for an extra night at Plus Florence. THAT'S how excited we were.
First my alarm was an hour out so I packed (including all my freshly cleaned underwear and clothing tucked round the bed) and got ready in about 10 minutes then RAN to the station. We arrived around 7.57 JUST in time... Or so we thought. Turns out the guy gave us the wrong time and we were an hour out. Devastated we regrouped in Reception, meet a pair of friendly Americans from Chicago, made dinner plans, budgeted, recovered from the shock of our finances and headed back to the station to plan our own trip to Pisa. God forbid whoever is at that your office tomorrow. I pray they see sense and refund our money. PRAY for their sake they do.
We ended up having a very nice day in Pisa today. Everyone tells you about the tower but no-one tells you about how pleasant it is. It's surrounded by other beautiful buildings and loads of lawn space that is perfect for a picnic. If only we had known we would have bought our own. All the same we got our novelty photos and sunbathed the rest of the time. Bliss!
