The view up the street where the hotel was. I only spent about four hours in Pisa while I was awake - arrived late at night, explored a bit in the morning, and caught a train to Florence shortly after noon.	The Baptisery, behind the cathedral.	View out my hotel window. Of all the places I stayed, this hotel was the most pricey and the least nice. Still, on the very first night I opened the shutters and saw a huge full moon right over this bright yellow wall, and new I was in Italy.	The leaning tower, leaning. Climbed this, of course, which was made more physically challenging than I expected by the strange physics and its effect on your knees.
Large indoor cemetary near the tower, with all kinds of interesting engravings and a huge fresco cycle from the 12th century.	Fibinnaci, whose picture I took for my father and all my math friends. I think he's thinking of a number, here.	Interesting view of the tower from up a ways.	Pisans seem to love their skulls. They were everywhere.
View of the square across from the tower and cathedral.	The cathedral, where I saw the first of many, many "incorrupt" bodies from the middle ages on display.	Up close view of the interesting inset patterns on the cathedral.
