Another day another tower


Thursday we took an excursion to Siena and San Gimignano. The first thing we did was to climb the Mangia Torre, another really tall (400 steps) tower next to the city hall in Siena. My poor legs. The views, again, were great. That is another one of Doug's things. If there is a tower to climb, we will climb it.

We explored the city a bit. That involved more hills--my legs were thrumming. Then on to San Gimignano. Another hill town known for its towers. I put my foot down. No more tower climbing. The streets themselves were steep, straining my already tired legs.

We have a list of unvisited sites, but no plan as yet for tomorrow. Maybe we can give our legs a rest. Not likely...
