The trip of a Lifetime!...

This is when we were climbing the bell tower....over 400 steps....exhausting












In front of some really cool old doors... Les is too cool for me :-)














The chains that the Apostle Peter was bound with











The view from the top of the Tower of Pisa











Les and Me in Florence










Playing around in the Boboli Gardens at the Medici Palace










I'm trying to kiss a wild boar...can you beleive they actually eat wild boar...strange














Allison and I just had to get some amazing Italian Shoes :-) And mine are made from Italian Leather...we only had to stop in about 100 shops before we found the perfect ones.











The Moses...one of Michelangelo's first sculptings...he created this when he was only 24...amazing!













Outside of St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican Square










The Tuscan countryside











A really amazing walkway through the trees













Pisa...that's extreme!










I'm so strong...












Les decided to use his amazing kickboxing skills













Florence...this is the only remaining original bridge from before WWI...all the others were destroyed












....this is just a small taste of the amazing trip we took. I wish I could have taken you all with me; it was the vacation of a lifetime and I am officially interested in history now!

I plan to put up more pictures later but I don't want to overwhelm you with hundreds of pictures at once, lol :-)
