This morning we left the beautiful town of Santa Margherita and travelled to The Leaning Tower of Pisa. Still impressive even after 30 years. Just time for a quick visit before the trek to Livorno. The drive there was very impressive, going right through mountains. We travelled through more than 30 tunnels in a span of about 60 kilometers. The tourists in Pisa were just as plentiful as many other popular spots. We then travelled the short distance to Livorno to catch the ferry to Corsica. This was a 4 hour crossing on a large ferry, just like the ones going to Vancouver Island. We arrived in the port of Bastia right at rush hour. Pretty crazy. Cars were doubled parked everywhere, even on the narrow one way streets. We couldn't get out of there fast enough. We travelled on a very windy road up over the top of a mountain, and down the other side to Saint Florent. The views were once again spectacular. Saint Florent is a pretty little seaside village. Plenty of fresh seafood is available in all restaurants. We now have to adjust from the Italian to French Language.
Bonsoir.
