Monticino is a great place to lay your head. But the mornings come early and they are not quite. We are awoken by traffic, the sound of glass and footsteps on cobblestone. Time to get up. We grab some caps and a danish and say our goodbyes to Mario. A quick stop at the internet cafe to check on Uffizi tickets and we are off. No tickets as of yet. Keep trying.We have heard the wait in line can be over 2 hours. Even a 19 day vacation does not allow for that kind of wasted time.
We are off to drop the car in Pisa. We will then take in the Leaning Tower and head grab a train to Florence.
Sienna is our next stop on the way. We need to go through Sienna to get to Pisa. But we didn't realize we needed to go right through Sienna. Literally. Our last stop in Sienna was us wandering aimlessly, wondering if we would ever find our way out of the walled city. Second trip is a little different. "How do we get out of this town?" El Limited Traffico????? I guess this is the street for us. Before you know it we are actually driving through the city center of the walled town. The streets are getting more narrow and the policia are starring. Or atleast that is what Chris feels. Are we going the correct way? What should we do? How do we get out of here. Should we pull over and run up the bell tower. Clear day good views. We keep driving the uphill narrow streets. Signs for the Piazza.
"Wait is that a drive up Gelato stand? Life is good" Quick hard Right. Finally we are out of the chaos.
