A Wonderful Surprise: Pisa

We were told over and over by many experienced travelers that Pisa was not the best city to visit.  "There is the leaning tower of Pisa and other than that- there is nothing to see!"  Well, we found our experience to be quite different and much more rewarding than we would have expected!  Pisa was a great respite from the mad tourist atmosphere of Paris.  We wondered around the city and found a few local restaurants that were highly recommended by locals.  The Tuscan bean soup was fantastic!  It was very special to be personally  greeted by the chef of the restaurant (a testament to the dedication and personal commitment to their restaurants).
