Florence-Pisa Old-New

When we visited in '99, the color had been enhanced and it appears more refreshed.


Michelangelo's David in the Duomo




 PISA 1973/1999 
Monatepulciano, Montalcino,  Tuscany Region                Ligure Region




Again, much cleaner than 1973 and refreshed.
Just recently the renovating was completed.  It's totally open to wander to the top.  






Try the coconut for a cool treat.
