We started off today by getting on a bus and traveling to Lucca. I have never been there before and it was absolutely beautiful. It's like a mini version of Florence, because it has a similar feel, but is much smaller and still has all of the original city walls. However, the walls are so thick that they have made the top of the wall into a park with a paved path surrounding the city. We rode our bikes around the city on that path, and it was so much fun and so beautiful!! Lucca is my new favorite city in Italy!!! We had a picnic lunch on the wall as well before taking the bus to Pisa. All we did in Pisa was see the leaning tower and the Cathedral and baptistery. There were so many tourists there it was crazy!!! But seeing the leaning tower was amazing. We came back and I made my pasta sauce and then we got gelatto and now we're going to bed because its late here and we have our first classes tomorrow!! I know I said I would upload some pictures today, but there's not really any that I like enough to upload. I'll work on that in the next few days. In the meantime I'll try to upload some pictures to facebook!!
