We took a trip up here on this cold and dreary day to visit this historic location. A nice quick one at 11:15 to open our account for Italy and a couple of our geocoins had a visit to mark the occasion not to mention a fave point. Thanks Slytherin, adopted by WimpyKid1.

[DE] Diesen Ort wollten wir schon immer mal besichtigen und heute war es dann endlich soweit.
Der Turm ist schon echt faszinierend und wir konnten ein paar schöne Fotos schießen, auch ohne einen Selfie-Stick zu kaufen Wink...

[EN] We always wanted to visit this place and today it finally happened.
The tower is already really fascinating and we were able to shoot some nice pictures, even without buying a selfie stick Wink...

Correct answers sent I hope. I never seem to get the answers for earth caches correct enough so hopefully I did the virtual right. Glad we took the train out here just for 2 hours to do these caches and see the tower.

Wow, what a beautiful site (and sight). And SO full of people! Visited on a day trip from Firenze. It is well worth getting entry to all 5 other attractions (the tower itself is a bit expensive). Great views can also be had from the second floor of the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo.

Also I noticed that the Duomo is a bit tilted on the long arm (area closest to the baptistry) - see the picture. I wasn't sure whether it was real or the tower's leaning was affecting my perception of everything! You wonder after a while, here.

TFTC!

Called in to give this cache/structure a little push. Seems I was not needed as it has managed to stay in place for a couple of years now.

On the way down from Nice on a Trafalgar tour we were told how good Italian construction was for roads. After seeing this on other structures in Venice I'm not conviniced Surprised

A couple of Geocoins made a virtual visit to the cache as well. TFTC

This is one of those iconic tourist caches you just have to get, up there with the Colosseum in Rome and the Oktoberfest grounds in Munich.
Absolute gorgeous day in Pisa for a look at things that are a little left of the middle.
Thanks for the virtual, always good to have a reminder of this site(email sent).

The cache was a good excuse to go back to an interesting location whilst waiting for a delayed flight.
Unfortunitly I couldn't get a photo of me holding it up as my phone/camera died a few minutes before finding the cache.
The area was very crowded with tourists today.
A great spot. TFTC. Email sent.

Found this one while on a Trafalgar bus tour of Europe. Virtuals are so appreciated as we don't get much time on the stops!

A beautiful spot, and good shopping too!

Found by Mary & David from Australia at 1425. Our second visit after a four-year absence. Last time we were here, the main attraction was closed while the engineers tried to fix it. It certainly looks better without all those support cables and fences everywhere. Our thanks to kimRobin for adding a little spice to our visit. Oh, and we did take the now-obligatory photo.
