Leaning Tower of Pisa Part II
Almost 30 years ago, Mum and Dad also climbed the tower of Pisa. Here are a couple of photos from their trip. This was way (way, way!) before digital cameras so there are only two photos (compared to the hundred or so Andrew and I took).
I love how there is a little, orange car parked right in front of the Tower. (Please excuse the dodgy photoshop job. There was a smudge on the photo.)
When Mum and Dad climbed the tower it actually had more of a lean than it does today. Recent restoration work straightened the tower by 45 centimetres, returning it to the position it was in 1838. So Andrew and I actually climbed an older version of the tower than Mum and Dad. We're time travellers!
