At the weekend, I escaped the fickle London weather to attend a friend’s wedding in Pisa, the Tuscan city famously known for its unusual tower. As a mate pointed out, the attraction is no longer the tower itself but the swarm of people sticking their hands out from a distance, posing as if they were preventing it from tipping over.

Surprisingly, many buildings in Pisa were peppered with graffiti as shown below from my leaning shot of the wall. Locals have a long way to go to catch up with London’s street art, but I guess that’s the best they can do without stencils and spray paint.

As for the wedding dinner, it was a culinary feast as one would expect from Italians. And the party? Well, the Madrileños from the groom’s side initiated the crowd with the rituals of chocolatero, and were still singing and dancing after the DJ left, as one would expect from Spaniards.
